Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are available in both an outpatient and inpatient setting. Individuals with a hearing impairment can be at a greater risk of addiction disorders because of their disability. Having a significant handicap can be a root cause for discouragement, depression and apathy for both adults and adolescents who could easily turn to drugs or alcohol to cope with these feelings and emotions. Hearing impaired services are available in Salina to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which provides recovery and treatment information and education in writing so that patients aren't inhibited from receiving help due to their impairment.
Drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers that have full time staff to help the hearing impaired are the most appropriate facilities to consider. Some rehabs only have part-time staff to assist and interpret this demographic, and this means hearing impaired clients won't make as much progress as everyone else and will miss out on vital activities they should be attending daily. There may be video presentations provided which use sign language as well, which can also be quite helpful.
There are agencies and organizations which provide hearing impaired people struggling with addiction with resources and information to discover and locate the rehabilitation services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
