With humor and wisdom, Rick Faunt shares his hearing loss journey, from multiple surgeries to an ultimately good solution for him: a bone-anchored hearing aid (BAHA). Read his 3-part story on our blog.

What’s a BAHA hearing aid? What’s the surgery and recovery like?

The Centre for Hearing Access at the Shedd Institute have issued an open letter to hearing instrument manufacturers and providers, advocating for manufacturers to provider “ADA-Access-Ready” hearing instruments without the need for intermediary devices: https://t.co/9xp1pC949v

This is great for fans with #HearingLoss attending games at the #Etihad Stadium. We installed hearing loops at the ticket offices - in fact many #PremierLeague grounds have our window intercom systems and loops at their ticket windows, including #Wembley!

Can AI make our hearing aids smarter? Hearing aid manufacturers seem to think so, as all the major brands have included AI for noise reduction in their latest models. @sharieberts https://t.co/gdx2ZLpXcA

Paul Simon’s influence goes beyond music—his advocacy has helped bring much-needed attention to hearing loss and the groundbreaking work of the Stanford Initiative to Cure Hearing Loss. @sharieberts @HearingLossCure https://t.co/gA03tHBeoQ

Contacta #HearingLoop spotting continues, this one at a self-serve checkout at @asda in #Poole in Dorset. Seen one - or installed one? Show us your pictures!

Thank you, Chennai Metro rail!

#HearingLoss #HearingLoops

[IAHA @iaha_global]

More loops! In what's described as a pioneering move, Chennai Metro Rail has installed hearing loops at all of its Metro stations.

Interviewee makes a very pertinent point though - There's no point in having a loop if nobody knows that it's there... https://t.co/UKWfOBLx9I

[HLAAWashingtonState @HLAAWaState]

👏

More window hearing loops, please.

[Contacta Systems Ltd @ContactaSystems]

We're making headlines again, with recent distribution deals by our US arm @Contacta_Inc that mean our market-leading window intercom systems will be more widely available to the security and building sectors. #SecurityBuyer #SecuritySolutions https://t.co/xIzxsx9iXk

The open-caption movie bill is moving forward. It's now in the Senate Ways & Means Committee. Thank you for supporting this bill! Stay tuned for what you can do next.

Greenland is getting hearing-friendly!

[Contacta Systems Ltd @ContactaSystems]

Could these be the most northerly Contacta #HearingLoops? When Greenland opens its new Nuuk airport later this month, passengers will be welcomed with our hearing loops at the arrival gates.

A big ole milkshake and a grilled cheese from Tillamook Creamery just got better: they're in the loop! Next time you're on the Oregon Coast, stop by and use the hearing loops at the creamery and the Tillamook Air Museum.

Two Huskies are making their Olympic debut in Paris! 🇫🇷
Jonas Ecker is a current marine biology major & Aaron Small just finished his degree in oceanography.
Neither are varsity athletes, but they just qualified for the semifinals in sprint kayak doubles.
