Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are accessible in both an inpatient and outpatient basis. People with hearing impairment can be at a greater risk of addiction problems because of their disability. Having a serious handicap can be a source of distress, discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adolescents and adults who could easily turn to drugs or alcohol to cope with these emotions. Hearing impaired services are available in Hardy to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which provides treatment information and education in writing so that clients aren't hindered from recovering due to their impairment.
Drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers that have full time staff to help the hearing impaired are the most ideal facilities to consider. Some rehabs only employ part-time staff to assist and interpret hearing impaired clients, and this means hearing impaired clients may not receive the same treatment as everyone else and will miss out on essential activities they should be involved with daily. There could be video presentations provided which use sign language as well, which is also very helpful.
There are organizations and agencies which can provide hearing impaired individuals suffering with addiction with resources and information to find the recovery services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
