Roger System

When children are in a noisy environment or when a large distance exists between speaker and listener, it is very difficult for children with hearing loss or Central Auditory Processing Disorder to focus on the primary auditory signal. A Roger System can be used in the above situations. A Roger System significantly improves the signal to noise ratio in the listening environment — including classrooms, day care, home, or in any outdoor settings, like playgrounds.

A Roger System is comprised of a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter (microphone) is worn around the neck of the teacher or parent (speaker.) The receiver (a tiny device) is attached to the child’s hearing aid. This type of system is used for hearing-impaired children.

If a child has learning disabilities, attention or auditory processing deficits, a slightly different Roger System is recommended. The transmitter is similar, but the receiver is different.

We will help you choose the right type of Roger System, based on your child’s hearing, attention, learning and lifestyle.
