CONTACTA’s Clipboard InfoLoop enables healthcare professionals on the move – such as ambulance crew, paramedics, doctors and nursing specialists on home visits – to communicate effectively with hearing-aid wearers, both indoors and out. Particularly in emergency situations, mutual clarity and correct understanding of speech between the patient and those providing treatment or assistance can have a vital added importance.
“All service providers – including all arms of the healthcare sector – are subject to the provisions of the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) 1995 which came fully into force in October 2004.
The regulations apply wherever a service is delivered – not just within buildings. So the Clipboard InfoLoop is an effective and convenient solution to help with full DDA compliance in relation to the hard-of-hearing – as well as a boost to the confidence of those treating or helping them.”
