Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are available in both an outpatient and inpatient setting. People with hearing impairment may be at a higher risk of substance abuse problems as a result of their impairment. Having a serious impairment can be a root cause for discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adults and adolescents who could easily turn to drugs or alcohol to cope with these feelings. Hearing impaired treatment services are available in Elmhurst 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 inhibited from getting better as a result of their impairment.
Substance abuse rehabilitation centers with full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the most appropriate facilities to consider. Some rehabs may only have part-time staff to interpret and assist this demographic, 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 attending every day. There may be video presentations available which use sign language as well, which can also be quite helpful.
There are agencies and organizations which give hearing impaired individuals suffering with addiction with information and resources to discover and locate the recovery services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
