Amy can communicate with her co-workers and patients

Amy is a chairside assistant and sterilization technician in a dental clinic in Grand Forks. “My hearing is impaired,” she explains. “Without hearing aids, it is very difficult to hear instructions, communicate with patients, and understand what is required of me.”

Her audiologist recommended WorkBC Assistive Technology Services (ATS) for support getting the hearing aids she needed for work.

Amy’s new hearing aids made a world of difference. “Communication is much better,” she said. “I am now able to hear coworkers clearly, communicate with patients as needed, and understand everything that is going on around me.”

Amy was grateful for the support and recommends ATS. She said, “Without assistance, I would not have been able to purchase new hearing aids. These have greatly improved my functionality at work.”
