Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an inpatient and outpatient basis. Individuals with a hearing impairment can be at a higher risk of substance abuse disorders because of their handicap. Having a serious disability can be a root cause for distress, discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adolescents and adults who could easily turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with these feelings and emotions. Hearing impaired rehab services are available in Richton to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which offers treatment information and education in writing so that patients aren't prevented from receiving help due to their disability.
Drug and alcohol treatment centers that have full time staff to provide assistance for the hearing impaired are the best facilities to consider. Some facilities only have part-time staff to interpret and assist hearing impaired clients, and this means hearing impaired clients won't receive the same treatment as everyone else and will miss out on important activities they should be participating in daily. There may be video presentations offered which use sign language as well, which is also extremely helpful.
There are organizations and agencies which can supply hearing impaired individuals suffering with substance abuse issues with information and resources to find the recovery services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
