Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand you are using ReSound hearing aids with your iPhone 6 and want to hear audible alerts for your text and email messages. Is your iPhone updated to the most recent iOS? Do you have one of the compatible ReSound models listed below? If so, when you set up your notifications for text and email on your iPhone, you should be hearing the audible sounds through your hearing aid. You may need to refer to your owner's manual for the device in addition to the resources below. I've highlighted some key information here for you. Click on the links for complete details.
