Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are available in both an outpatient and inpatient basis. People with hearing impairment can be at a greater risk of addiction disorders as a result of their handicap. Having a significant disability can be a source of distress, discouragement, depression and apathy for both adolescents and adults who may turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with these feelings. Hearing impaired rehab services are available in Red Valley 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 hindered from getting better as a result of their impairment.
Drug and alcohol treatment facilities that have full time staff to help the hearing impaired are the most appropriate facilities to consider. Some facilities only employ part-time staff to interpret and assist this demographic, and this means hearing impaired clients won't make as much progress as everyone else and will miss out on essential 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 agencies and organizations that can give hearing impaired individuals struggling with substance abuse issues with information and resources to find the rehabilitation services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
