Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an inpatient and outpatient setting. People with hearing impairment may be at a higher risk of addiction disorders due to their handicap. Having a major impairment can be a source of distress, discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adolescents and adults who may turn to drugs or alcohol to deal with these feelings. Hearing impaired services are available in Van Nuys 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 patients aren't hindered from recovering as a result of their disability.
Addiction rehabilitation centers that have full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the most appropriate programs to select. Some programs may only have part-time staff to interpret and assist this demographic, which this means hearing impaired clients won't make as much progress as everyone else and will miss out on important activities they should be participating in every day. There may be video presentations available which utilize sign language as well, which is also very helpful.
There are agencies and organizations that provide hearing impaired people struggling with addiction with resources and information to find the treatment services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
