Recognizing that a teenager's world is a different one, Phonak has recently launched the first website tailored to the needs of teens with hearing loss. Through teen-specific hooks such as music and social life, the site offers teens all they want to know about hearing technology – and more importantly, what it can do to enhance their lives. The latest addition to the site is a sports section that offers inspiring examples of teen athletes with hearing loss using Phonak Sky Q and Phonak Roger. This new sports section answers questions that teens may have about participating in outdoor sports while wearing hearing devices and communicating with team mates on the field.

Surveys have shown that hearing impaired teens perceive themselves as typical teenagers who happen to have hearing loss. They love to be active in sports, music, and other fun activities like any other teenager. They expect their hearing aids and wireless technology to allow them to do whatever they want to do without being limited by their hearing loss.
"Hearing impaired teens want to hear from their peers about how they succeeded in similar situations. This is why we have developed a site dedicated to teenagers, offering them all the information they seek and a platform for sharing their own challenges and accomplishments in everyday life with hearing devices," says Angela Pelosi, Head of Pediatrics at Phonak. "With sports as our latest experience, we want to encourage them to get out there and get active, without letting their hearing impairment limit them in any way."
Sports is one of the favorite pastimes of teens. Those with hearing loss often fear that they cannot participate or keep up with other teens because of hearing-related communication issues.
Bringsoundtolife.com shows teenagers that communication is possible on the field, on the court, and on the track with hearing solutions like Phonak Sky Q and Phonak Roger. Short, engaging videos show how Phonak hearing solutions have given teenagers the chance to live their dreams and succeed in their favorite sports – all heard and told from a teen's perspective.
BringSoundtoLife.com offers teens the opportunity to share their own experiences and stories using the latest Phonak technology with the community to encourage and inspire their peers. A Phonak Sky Q and Roger color customization tool, and an "Ask your audiologist" tool make sure teenagers get the most out of the site, whatever their individual preferences and needs.

ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, this generation is very likely to have worse hearing loss than the ones before. Technology has made noise a common thing and teens walk around with headphones in all the time. I think it is great that professionals are acknowledging this and making hearing aids more available and applicable to teenagers. This will make it much easier for people and make them more likely to do something about hearing loss rather than just living with it. http://www.jacobsclinical.com
