Caption Call

 CaptionCall is a revolutionary telephone system for anyone who has trouble hearing. It can help those with hearing loss stay connected and communicate confidently with friends, family and even business associates.

CaptionCall is the most recommended captioned telephone solution by hearing health professionals and is the national leader in captioned telephone services. Created by Sorenson Communications, this system has been helping people with hearing loss lead happier and healthier lives for years.

How does CaptionCall work?

CaptionCall works just like a traditional telephone with the addition of the closed captions that are available on your television. Through advanced technology and a communication assistant, everything that the person on the other end of the line says is displayed on a large screen. In addition to exceptional sound quality, the audio and frequency settings can be customized to work with your individual degree of hearing loss.

Delivery and installation of the CaptionCall telephone is free and completed by a trained professional. They will explain how CaptionCall works and answer any questions you may have. The captioning service is also free, thanks to a fund from the Federal Communication Commission.

A CaptionCall phone includes the following features:
