Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are available in both an inpatient and outpatient basis. Individuals with a hearing impairment can be at a greater risk of addiction problems due to their impairment. Having a serious disability can be a source of distress, discouragement, depression and apathy for both adults and adolescents who may turn to drugs or alcohol to cope with these feelings and emotions. Hearing impaired treatment services are accessible in Laurel 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 patients aren't prevented from recovering due to their handicap.
Addiction rehab facilities with full time staff to help the hearing impaired are the most appropriate facilities to select. Some facilities may only have part-time staff to assist and interpret hearing impaired clients, which this means hearing impaired clients may not receive the same treatment as everyone else and will miss out on vital activities they should be involved with every day. There may be video presentations provided which use sign language as well, which can also be really helpful.
There are agencies and organizations which can provide hearing impaired people struggling with addiction with information and resources to discover and locate the rehabilitation services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
