The ringer also can be adjusted. He now can call his folks, his friend, or my cell with a simple touch. This phone has given my husband, who has Alzheimers, independence. I'm thinking of purchasing multiple units. I also love the phone which is perfect to use with or without my hearing aids. I just press a button for amplification. Downside. We are so used to portables, the earpiece cord isn't long enough to go very far from the phone itself.
The phone works advertised and despite the absence of a rotary dial my 90+ parents use it.
We bought this phone to replace an older large button phone which was gradually losing receiver volume. This phone has been wonderful for my wife who is in a nursing home, and has vision problems. The one-button auto dial feature is ideal for her, and the sound quality is excellent. I would recommend this phone to anyone with similiar needs.
it isn't possible to put photos- so we just used their people images and wrote names underneath. I was hoping that using photos would be the answer as numbers are not working with her anymore. I got this phone for my mother with Alzheimers. Not perfect but the only phone available that is close to this. Problem is. the place for photos is so small. Also- too many other adjustments available- not great for alzheimers patients- they mess with other things- so I had to tape those down. There is no perfection.
I programmed the speed dial numbers for him and he is a happy camper. This phone is perfect.
dad who has good enough hearing, but cannot see well. I was looking for a phone for my 87 y.o.
All I wanted was a phone that had large buttons and speed dial. I had a hard time finding a phone without an answering machine, multiple lines, caller id, etc.
All of those things would make the phone too confusing for him to use. I like the fact that the speed dial buttons are large as well.
With the new rules requiring 10 digit dialing, the speed dial is essential.
