The Cadex watch has an audible beeping alarm. The alarm is similar to other beeping watches. The tone is rather high pitched. If you suspect you may not be able to hear higher tones, we suggest you go to a department store and ask a clerk in the watch department to set any alarm watch for you. If you can hear the alarm, you will be able to hear the Cadex watch. Not suitable for hearing impaired patients.

If the alarm is placed in the basement, it should easily be heard from the main floor of the house, even behind one or two closed doors. This of course depends on the type of construction, its size, the background noise and each person's hearing capability. Sound level is rated at 95 dB, which is above most such stand alone battery powered units.

ANS. Normally sufficiently loud to be heard clearly above any ambient noise. For normally quiet areas a minimum sound level of 65dBA is specified. For noisier areas, at least 5dBA above any ambient noise level, and for bedrooms where there are no permanent night staff to wake sleeping persons, the sound level should be 75dBA at the bed head. This normally means an alarm sounder/bell in each bedroom.

What is it like to be hard of hearing?

Canadian Hard of Hearing Association: Newfoundland-Labrador
It is almost impossible for a hearing person to know what it is like to be hard of hearing, just as it is equally difficult to know what it is like to be blind, or to suffer from any particular disability unless one lives with it. However, while it is possible to have some understanding based on education, experience and involvement with people with special needs, complete understanding comes from having lived with hearing loss and its isolating effects.

No. The SIGN with your BABY® program was developed for hearing babies and hearing parents. However, because the program is based on American Sign Language, it is also useful for children who have special needs, including deaf children. It is important to remember that children who will use ASL as their primary form of communication will need the support of other professionals who will teach them all elements of ASL.

When you are involved in a loud activity, wear earplugs or other hearing protective devices. Be sure to protect children as well.

Why do hearing aids amplify so much noise and make sounds too loud, but not clear enough?

SAAA
Among the most frequent complaints voiced by hearing aid users are that noise is amplified too much and that certain sounds become too loud for the user to bear. Some modern hearing aids contain sensors that allow the hearing aid to detect sounds exceeding a certain loudness level, and then self-adjust to reduce the amplification (gain) for those sounds.
