Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are available in both an inpatient and outpatient setting. People with hearing impairment can be at a higher risk of addiction disorders because of their disability. 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 deal with these feelings. Hearing impaired treatment services are available in Rough And Ready to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which offers recovery and treatment information and education in writing so that patients aren't hindered from getting better due to their disability.
Substance abuse rehabilitation programs that have full time staff to provide assistance for the hearing impaired are the most appropriate facilities to consider. Some programs only employ part-time staff to interpret and assist hearing impaired clients, which this means hearing impaired clients may not receive the same treatment as everyone else and will miss out on vital activities they should be involved with daily. There may be video presentations provided which use sign language as well, which can also be quite helpful.
There are agencies and organizations that supply hearing impaired individuals struggling with addiction with resources and information to discover and locate the treatment services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
