Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an outpatient and inpatient setting. People with hearing impairment may be at a higher risk of addiction problems as a result of their disability. Having a serious impairment can be a root cause for distress, discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adults and adolescents who may turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with these feelings and emotions. Hearing impaired treatment services are available in Gouverneur to help resolve addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which includes treatment information and education in writing so that patients aren't prevented from receiving help due to their handicap.
Addiction rehabilitation facilities that have full time staff to provide assistance for the hearing impaired are the most appropriate facilities to select. Some programs may only employ part-time staff to interpret and assist hearing impaired clients, which this means hearing impaired clients won't make as much progress as everyone else and will miss out on important activities they should be attending daily. There may be video presentations provided which use sign language as well, which can also be extremely helpful.
There are organizations and agencies which can give hearing impaired individuals struggling with substance abuse issues with information and resources to find the rehabilitation services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
