Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an inpatient and outpatient basis. People with hearing impairment may be at a higher risk of addiction disorders due to their handicap. Having a major disability can be a root cause for discouragement, depression and apathy for both adolescents and adults who may turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with these feelings. Hearing impaired rehab services are accessible in Littleton 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 prevented from recovering due to their impairment.
Drug rehabilitation facilities that have full time staff to provide assistance for the hearing impaired are the best facilities to to look into. Some rehabs only employ part-time staff to interpret and assist hearing impaired clients, and this means hearing impaired clients won't benefit as much as everyone else and will miss out on essential activities they should be participating in every day. There may be video presentations provided which use sign language as well, which is also very helpful.
There are organizations and agencies that can give hearing impaired people suffering with substance abuse issues with resources and information to find the rehabilitation services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
