Telecommunication for the Disabled

When Alexander Graham Bell invented the “electrical speech machine” in 1876, he probably never imagined that his telecommunication invention would become as high tech as it is today. The telephone, as we now know it, unites loved-ones with soldiers overseas, beckons pizza and Chinese food to our doors, helps us obtain access to medical help and emergency assistance, and keeps businesses connected with their clients and customers. The telephone is also an essential workplace tool that many employees, those with and without hearing alike, must use to perform job functions. Assistive telephone technology makes it possible for individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing, physically disabled, visually impair or blind to use telephone communication as a means for performing essential functions on the job.

Telephone technology continues to advance to meet the needs of individuals who are disabled at home and in the workplace. The technology may not always look like a standard telephone and function in a traditional voice-to-voice way and others but conversation still occurs from one end to the other.
