Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are accessible in both an inpatient and outpatient basis. People with hearing impairment may be at a higher risk of substance abuse problems due to their disability. Having a major handicap can be a source of discouragement, depression and apathy for both adolescents and adults who may turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with these feelings and emotions. Hearing impaired rehab services are offered in Littlefield to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which includes treatment information and education in writing so that clients aren't prevented from getting better as a result of their disability.
Drug rehab facilities that have full time staff to help the hearing impaired are the most ideal facilities to select. Some facilities may 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 vital activities they should be involved with every day. There could be video presentations provided which use sign language as well, which is also very helpful.
There are organizations and agencies which provide hearing impaired individuals suffering with addiction with resources and information to discover and locate the treatment services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
