Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are accessible in both an outpatient and inpatient basis. People with hearing impairment may be at a greater risk of addiction problems due to their impairment. Having a significant disability can be a source of distress, discouragement, depression and apathy for both adults and adolescents who could easily turn to drugs or alcohol to cope with these feelings. Hearing impaired treatment services are available in Escondido 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 recovering due to their disability.
Substance abuse rehab programs that have full time staff to help the hearing impaired are the best facilities to select. Some programs may only employ part-time staff to interpret and assist hearing impaired clients, and this means hearing impaired clients may not make as much progress as everyone else and will miss out on essential activities they should be involved with daily. There may be video presentations available which use sign language as well, which can also be very helpful.
There are agencies and organizations that give hearing impaired individuals struggling with addiction with resources and information to find the recovery services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
