Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an outpatient and inpatient setting. People with hearing impairment can be at a higher risk of addiction problems as a result of their disability. living with a major handicap can be a source of discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adults and adolescents who may turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with these emotions. Hearing impaired rehab services are available in Huntingdon Valley 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 recovering because of their disability.
Drug treatment facilities that have full time staff to help the hearing impaired are the most appropriate facilities to consider. Some programs only employ 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 essential activities they should be involved with daily. There may be video presentations available which use sign language as well, which is also very helpful.
There are agencies and organizations which can supply hearing impaired people suffering with addiction with resources and information to find the treatment services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
