We are proud to provide CapTel® Captioned Telephones to those who need one. Ideal for people with hearing loss, the CapTel® Captioned Telephone works like any other phone with one important addition: it shows captions of everything the caller says. You can listen to the caller and also read captions of what they say in the CapTel display screen.

The phone is available at no cost with a signed certification from our office. CapTel service is provided at no cost to the user through a fund set up by the FCC to help people with hearing loss.
