We purchased the Neosonic Hearing Device for my 90 yr old husband who also has dementia. He has accepted using this Device, and it is safer. With his hear aids, he was putting them in backwards, without batteries, putting only batteries in his ears. He can hear both people and the TV better with this Device, and we don’t need the TV’s volume at 99%. The nice thing about this Device, I can turn off the Mic unit and it automatically turns off the ear pieces - thus we save the battery time. We are very thankful we found this Device.
