The holiday season is a time to celebrate with family and friends, and finding the perfect gift for each loved one is part of the joy. For those in our lives who experience hearing loss, thoughtful gifts that enhance their comfort, safety, and communication can show how much we care. Here are a few gift ideas from our team at Hometown Hearing Center that can make everyday life a little easier—and more enjoyable—for loved ones with hearing loss.
Our Gift Ideas for Loved Ones with Hearing Loss:
Amplified Phones and Accessories
Many individuals with hearing loss find it challenging to use standard telephones. Amplified phones allow for clearer sound, reducing frustration and making it easier to stay connected with loved ones. Some options even include visual indicators for incoming calls, ensuring they never miss a call.
Wireless TV Listening Devices
Watching TV can be difficult for someone with hearing loss, especially if they share a home with others who don’t want the volume turned up. Wireless TV listening devices let the listener control their own volume without impacting others, creating a more enjoyable viewing experience. We recommend the Starkey StarLink TV Streamer!
Vibrating Alarm Clocks and Alerting Systems
Waking up to a standard alarm clock can be challenging for someone who has trouble hearing high-pitched sounds. Vibrating alarm clocks and bed shakers offer a solution, as they gently vibrate or flash lights to wake the person up.
Subscription Services for Audiobooks and Podcasts
Audiobooks and podcasts make it possible to enjoy stories and learn new things in an accessible way. Services like Audible or podcast subscriptions can be tailored to their interests, providing hours of entertainment and education.
Schedule a Hearing Test Before the Holidays
With so much to look forward to this holiday season, there’s no reason to miss out on the moments that matter.
