one in five seek treatment<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nYour hearing aids may even be compatible with some of the accommodations available at the amusement park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ask About Assistive Listening Devices<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
After you arrive at the amusement park, ask one of the employees if there are any assistive listening devices available. They may offer captioning devices, headphones that amplify sound or induction loops that can sync with your hearing aids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Find Live Shows with ASL Interpreters or Captioning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
A lot of amusement parks have live shows as well as rides. Many of these include dialogue, so you can ask if there will be an ASL interpreter there so that you can follow along.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As an alternative, there may be captioning options at the shows. Closed captions are provided on a portable device that you hold in your lap, or open captions may be displayed on the large screen that everybody sees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ask About Hotel Accommodations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
No matter if you\u2019re staying in a hotel associated with the amusement park or another local hotel like Bellevue Club Hotel, ask the staff what accommodations they offer, too. They may have an amplified or captioned phone, a shake-awake or lighted alarm clock, strobe light smoke detectors or assistive listening devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
