Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an outpatient and inpatient basis. People with hearing impairment may be at a higher risk of substance abuse disorders as a result of their handicap. Having a serious impairment can be a source of 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 treatment services are offered in Moorhead to help resolve addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which offers treatment information and education in writing so that clients aren't prevented from recovering as a result of their handicap.
Drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers with full time staff to help the hearing impaired are the best programs to consider. Some rehabs only employ part-time staff to interpret and assist hearing impaired clients, which this means hearing impaired clients may not receive the same treatment as everyone else and will miss out on essential activities they should be involved with every day. There could be video presentations provided which use sign language as well, which is also very helpful.
There are agencies and organizations which give hearing impaired people struggling with addiction with resources and information to find the rehabilitation services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
