Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are available in both an inpatient and outpatient setting. People with hearing impairment may be at a higher risk of addiction disorders because of their impairment. Having a major handicap can be a root cause for distress, discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adults and adolescents who may turn to drugs or alcohol to deal with these feelings. Hearing impaired services are offered in Livingston to help resolve addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which includes treatment information and education in writing so that clients aren't inhibited from receiving help as a result of their impairment.
Substance abuse rehabilitation facilities with full time staff to provide assistance for the hearing impaired are the best programs to select. Some facilities may only employ part-time staff to assist and interpret hearing impaired clients, which this means hearing impaired clients may not receive the same treatment as everyone else and will miss out on important activities they should be involved with every day. There may be video presentations offered which use sign language as well, which can also be really helpful.
There are organizations and agencies which can provide hearing impaired people struggling with substance abuse issues with information and resources to discover and locate the rehabilitation services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
