The Geemarc CL100 is designed to help those with a high frequency hearing loss, a problem affecting up to 95% of hearing impaired people. Those with high-frequency hearing loss cant hear sounds like “st” and “ch”, so words like stair and chair sound like air. Just increasing the volume doesn’t always help because it amplifies all frequencies.

The Geemarc CL100 telephone features a built-in sound equalizer that selectively increases the volume of high or low frequency sounds. This equaliser should help those with a high-frequency hearing loss.

In our view the Geemarc CL100 (or CL1100) has a sharp sound and good level of amplification and induction T coupler – one of our most popular phones.

My name is Tina O’Rahilly and I am currently studying for a Master’s in Public Policy in Dublin City University. Following a cycling accident a number of years ago where I suffered a traumatic brain injury, I now have a disability. As someone that was told they may never work again, it has led me to the area concerning people with disabilities and the services available to them when it comes to employment.

You are invited to participate in an online survey for a research paper entitled “To What Extent is the Government achieving its obligation under the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities when it comes to Employment Services?”.

Your replies will be anonymous and there is no option on the survey for you to put in any of your personal details. Completion of this survey is completely voluntary.
