Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are accessible in both an outpatient and inpatient basis. Individuals with a hearing impairment may be at a higher risk of substance abuse disorders due to their impairment. Having a significant impairment can be a source of 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 treatment services are available in Safford to help resolve addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which offers recovery and treatment information and education in writing so that clients aren't prevented from recovering as a result of their impairment.
Addiction treatment facilities that have full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the most ideal facilities to to look into. Some programs may only employ 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 important activities they should be involved with every day. There may be video presentations available which use sign language as well, which can also be extremely helpful.
There are organizations and agencies which can provide hearing impaired individuals struggling with addiction with resources and information to discover and locate the recovery services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
