Treatment Services for the Hearing Impaired - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Kilbourne, IL.

Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are accessible in both an inpatient and outpatient setting. Individuals with a hearing impairment can be at a greater risk of substance abuse disorders due to their impairment. Having a serious handicap can be a source of discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adolescents and adults who may turn to drugs or alcohol to cope with these emotions. Hearing impaired rehab services are available in Kilbourne 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 clients aren't prevented from receiving help as a result of their handicap.

Substance abuse treatment facilities that have full time staff to help the hearing impaired are the most ideal facilities to select. Some facilities only employ part-time staff to interpret and assist hearing impaired clients, and 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 provided which use sign language as well, which is also extremely helpful.

There are agencies and organizations which can provide 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).
