Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an inpatient and outpatient basis. People with hearing impairment can be at a greater risk of addiction problems because of their disability. Having a serious disability can be a source of distress, discouragement, depression and apathy for both adults and adolescents who may turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with these emotions. Hearing impaired rehab services are accessible in Broomfield to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which includes treatment information and education in writing so that patients aren't hindered from recovering as a result of their impairment.
Drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers that have full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the most appropriate facilities to consider. Some facilities 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 organizations and agencies that give hearing impaired people suffering with substance abuse issues with information and resources to find the treatment services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
