Frequently Asked Questions |
|
Do I need an appointment or can I just walk-in?
Yes you can just walk in. However, we cannot guarantee that we will have all of the information that you need right at that moment. It would be better to call and set up an appointment so that you are guaranteed a block of time to discuss any and all issues with Client Services .
Do you offer Sign Language classes?
Yes, we offer classes in the Spring and Fall. We have them posted right here on the website or feel free to contact us!
Do you only work with Deaf and Hard of Hearing individuals?
We work with all people in all situations related to hearing loss. BDHHS is multi-faceted and unique due to being a resource center. We provide Client Services, Interpreting, Sign Language Classes, Health Workshops, Sensitivity Training, and a long list of other services. We are with you from start to finish, birth to beyond.
Do you have more than one location?
Yes, we have our main office in Reading, PA and we recently opened an office in Lancaster, PA. Both offices work closely with each other and strive to meet the needs of the communities that we live and work in. We are looking forward to opening other offices in surrounding areas in the future. We will keep you posted!
How do I request an interpreter for an upcoming event/Appointment?
The process of scheduling an interpreter is quite simple. The company/individual paying for the services just needs to call our office (610-685-4520) or schedule an interpreter right here on the website.
Do you do hearing screenings?
Yes, we do hearing screenings either here at the office or at your child's school. Depending upon the outcome, we will assist you in future appointments with an Audiologist. Please call for more information and to set up an appointment.
Do you assist with hearing aids and other assistive devices?
Yes, we do have programs available for hearing aids and other devices for those individuals that qualify. Contact the office for more information.
