Method and system for alerting individuals experiencing sensory limitations and/or sensory interference

An apparatus for alerting individuals experiencing sensory limitations and/or sensory interference comprising:

• a hard wired telephone;
• an integrator circuit electrically coupled to the hard wired telephone, said integrator circuit including a signal generator coupled to a transmitter;
• and
• an alerting unit in wireless communication with said transmitter of said user integrator circuit, said alerting unit comprising:
• a transceiver for wirelessly communicating with said user integrator circuit;
• a central processing unit for receiving and processing communications from said transceiver;
• an alert notification device coupled to said central processing unit, said alert notification device configured to provide an alert to a user upon receipt of an alert signal from said central processing unit;
• and
• a power supply for providing power to the central processing unit, transceiver and alert notification device of the alerting unit.

A method for alerting individuals experiencing sensory limitations and/or sensory interference comprising the steps of:

• generating a wireless signal from an integrator circuit electrically coupled to a hard wired telephone;
• transmitting said wireless signal from a transmitter associated with said integrator circuit;
• receiving said wireless signal at a transceiver of an alerting unit;
• using a central processing unit to process said signal utilizing a notification subroutine;
• and
• sending a signal from the central processing unit based on the notification subroutine to an alert notification device coupled to said central processing unit;
• and
• generating a notification to a user.
