Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are available in both an outpatient and inpatient basis. People with hearing impairment can be at a greater risk of substance abuse problems as a result of their handicap. Having a serious disability can be a source of discouragement, depression and apathy for both adults and adolescents who could easily turn to alcohol or drugs to deal with these feelings and emotions. Hearing impaired services are available in Port Heiden to help resolve addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which offers treatment information and education in writing so that patients aren't hindered from recovering as a result of their disability.
Addiction rehab programs that have full time staff to provide assistance for the hearing impaired are the best programs to to look into. Some facilities only have part-time staff to interpret and assist hearing impaired clients, and this means hearing impaired clients won't benefit as much as everyone else and will miss out on essential activities they should be attending every day. There may be video presentations offered which use sign language as well, which can also be really helpful.
There are agencies and organizations that can provide hearing impaired people suffering with substance abuse issues with information and resources to find the recovery services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
