Glad to hear your wife is OK and her BP has settled , it’s scary when it gets up that high ….

My hubbies hearing aids are connected to his phone , if we are in a noisy place like a dance hall, if he can’t hear others talking to him he can put his phone on the table so voices are picked up via the phone
He can also answer his phone via a little switch on his hearing aids …….. , however I believe not all phones are compatible with hearing aids , hubs has a Apple 12 iphone pro …., our neighbour has an android and he’s H A won’t work with his phone.
When he first got the HA he took the hearing consultants advice , and got the model up from what I’ve got ….as it worked better / clearer without interference / screeching ,he even uses it for GPS if we need road directions while away
I looked this up Tony …
Compatible phones for hearing aids are generally
iPhones (M3/T4 rated) and many
Androids (especially Samsung Galaxy S/Z series, Motorola) that support Bluetooth and have high M/T ratings (M4/T4 best) for reduced interference, with direct streaming (Made for iPhone/Android) and dedicated apps (like Oticon, Widex, Phonak) enhancing connectivity, so check your hearing aid brand's app compatibility list for specific models.
