Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are available in both an inpatient and outpatient setting. Individuals with a hearing impairment can be at a higher risk of substance abuse problems due to their handicap. Having a major disability can be a root cause for discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adults and adolescents who could easily turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with these feelings and emotions. Hearing impaired treatment services are accessible in Wrangell to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which provides treatment information and education in writing so that patients aren't hindered from getting better due to their handicap.
Addiction rehab facilities with full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the most ideal facilities to select. Some programs may only have part-time staff to interpret and assist hearing impaired clients, which this means hearing impaired clients may not make as much progress as everyone else and will miss out on important activities they should be participating in daily. There could be video presentations provided which utilize sign language as well, which can also be very helpful.
There are organizations and agencies which can give hearing impaired people struggling with addiction with resources and information to find the treatment services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
