Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an inpatient and outpatient basis. Individuals with a hearing impairment may be at a greater risk of addiction disorders due to their impairment. Having a major impairment can be a root cause for discouragement, depression and apathy for both adolescents and adults who could easily turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with these emotions. Hearing impaired services are offered in Monte Vista to help resolve addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which includes recovery and treatment information and education in writing so that clients aren't prevented from receiving help because of their disability.
Drug rehab programs with full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the most appropriate programs to to look into. Some rehabs only have part-time staff to interpret and assist this demographic, and this means hearing impaired clients may not benefit as much as everyone else and will miss out on essential activities they should be participating in daily. There may be video presentations offered which use sign language as well, which can also be quite helpful.
There are agencies and organizations that give hearing impaired people suffering with substance abuse issues with resources and information to find the rehabilitation services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
