Ministry Medical Group in Rhinelander is a CaptionCall® Provider for Hearing Impaired
CaptionCall® is a revolutionary new telephone and service for anyone who has trouble hearing on the phone, Ministry Medical Group said in a press release. While hearing loss affects millions of people for many different reasons - age, illness, injury, loud working conditions, and military service among them - it doesn't have to limit the quality of their phone conversations. With CaptionCall, it's easy to communicate confidently with friends, family and colleagues. The equipment is free for a limited time for those who qualify.
"Communicating through the telephone can be challenging for those who are hearing impaired and this technology allows us to better serve our patients," said Karen Teter, doctor of audiology, Ministry Medical Group in Rhinelander.
"CaptionCall will also assist the individual by better connecting them to family and friends," said Heidi Grosskopf, doctor of audiology, Ministry Medical Group in Rhinelander.
Similar to captioned television, CaptionCall uses voice recognition technology and a fast transcription service to quickly provide written captions of what callers say on a large, easy-to-read screen. Plus, CaptionCall offers exceptional sound quality with customizable audio settings to match an individual's unique audiogram, according to Ministry Medical Group.
