Dr. Remensnyder to be interviewed about the newly installed Hearing Loop at LF City Hall -- Channel 17 at 7:30 p.m. tonite

Joining the list of local venues that have hearing loops installed which include the First Presbyterian Church of Lake Forest, the Church of St. Mary, the Lake Forest/Lake Bluff Senior Center, and the gathering room (Vail Room) at Lake Forest Place; Lake Forest City Hall has recently had a Hearing Loop installed.  Hearing Loops are the best means of enhanced hearing in poor acoustical environments for those with hearing loss.  At a touch of a button (the telecoil) on a hearing aid, those with hearing loss can link directly into the sound system--thereby eliminating background noise, annoying reverberation (echo), and distance issues.  Like my patients all report, "It's like they are talking right in my ear!!!"
