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