Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are accessible in both an inpatient and outpatient basis. People with hearing impairment may be at a greater risk of substance abuse problems as a result of their handicap. Having a serious disability can be a root cause for discouragement, depression and apathy for both adolescents and adults who could easily turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with these feelings and emotions. Hearing impaired treatment services are accessible in Beverly Hills to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which includes recovery and treatment information and education in writing so that clients aren't inhibited from receiving help because of their handicap.
Drug and alcohol treatment programs that have full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the most appropriate facilities to consider. Some rehabs may only have part-time staff to assist and interpret hearing impaired clients, which this means hearing impaired clients won't benefit as much as everyone else and will miss out on essential activities they should be participating in every day. There may be video presentations available which use sign language as well, which can also be quite helpful.
There are organizations and agencies which provide hearing impaired individuals struggling with substance abuse issues with information and resources to find the treatment services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
