[Md-sligo] FW: Sunday, September 20th: Learn More about Hearing Aids and Hearing Assistive Technology at Tenley Neighborhood Library

This is not designed especially for blind people, but some of you may be interested in this.

I will be sending you information about a seminar in Baltimore especially for deaf-blind people.

Learn More about Hearing Aids and Hearing Assistive Technology

Are you having difficulty participating in conversations with friends and colleagues? Are noisy restaurants (aren't they all?), group discussions, telephone calls, lectures and performances difficult to follow and exhausting?  Do you or family members worry that you won't hear the smoke alarm, the phone or the alarm clock? Technology from hearing aids and cochlear implants to captioned and amplified telephones, loop systems, and other listening and alerting systems can make a world of difference.
Come and learn more. HLAA-DC will host a presentation and discussion on these subjects by Dr. Melanie Birck of George Washington University'sDepartment of Speech and Hearing Sciences.

Sunday, September 20, 2015, 2:00pm - 3:30pm

(a stone's throw from the Tenleytown Station on Metro's Red Line)
