Hi Sheila
Seems like your remit is extending beyond dyslexia! (a familiar story:)
Don't know about an attachment that enhances sound, but amplified stethoscopes are certainly available. Try Starkey Laboratories UK - ask for sales on 0161 483 2200 (Debi was the person i spoke to). They recently sent me details of their Model ST3 powered stethoscope, which is about £200 ex VAT.

A nursing student with a hearing loss has difficulty using a stethoscope
when taking Blood Pressure measurements.
He says he's heard of an attachment that enhances sound - if you have
details, please let me know.
Thanks
