Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an outpatient and inpatient setting. Individuals with a hearing impairment can be at a higher risk of addiction disorders as a result of their impairment. Having a serious handicap can be a root cause for discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adolescents and adults who may turn to drugs or alcohol to cope with these feelings and emotions. Hearing impaired rehab services are accessible in Flagstaff to help resolve addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which offers recovery and treatment information and education in writing so that patients aren't hindered from recovering due to their disability.
Drug rehabilitation centers that have full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the best facilities to consider. Some facilities only have part-time staff to interpret and assist hearing impaired clients, and this means hearing impaired clients may not benefit as much as everyone else and will miss out on important activities they should be participating in daily. There may be video presentations available which use sign language as well, which can also be extremely helpful.
There are organizations and agencies that can give hearing impaired individuals suffering with addiction with information and resources to find the recovery services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
