An ALD is any type of device that can help you function better in your day-to-day communication situations. An ALD can be used with or without hearing aids to overcome the negative effects of distance, background noise, and poor room acoustics. So even though you have a hearing aid, assistive listening devices can offer greater ease of hearing (and therefore reduced stress and fatigue) in many day-to-day communication situations. Hearing Aids + ALDs = Better listening and better communication!
