Hope some tech whizz can help please.
My 88yo mum wears digital hearing aids and struggles to hear the voice on a landline (even with a special phone that boosts sound to 50dB).

She can hear OK when I Skype her as they're bluetooth connected to her ipad, but as she has dementia she struggles to use devices like that and mobiles.

Mobile reception there is rubbish so I can't rely on the call getting through even if she had a phone that could be paired with her hearing aids.

I've been looking for a landline phone with Bluetooth technology but they don't seem to exist.

I know that phones are increasingly connected to the Internet not copper wires but this still doesn't appear to offer a solution.

Any tips please? Ta.
