Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are available in both an inpatient and outpatient setting. Individuals with a hearing impairment may be at a higher risk of addiction disorders as a result of their disability. Having a serious disability can be a source of discouragement, depression and apathy for both adults and adolescents who may turn to drugs or alcohol to deal with these feelings and emotions. Hearing impaired services are available in Oil City to help resolve addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which provides recovery and treatment information and education in writing so that clients aren't hindered from receiving help because of their impairment.
Drug rehab centers that have full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the most appropriate programs to select. Some programs only employ part-time staff to assist and interpret hearing impaired clients, and this means hearing impaired clients may not receive the same treatment as everyone else and will miss out on vital activities they should be participating in every day. There could be video presentations provided which use sign language as well, which can also be extremely helpful.
There are agencies and organizations that supply hearing impaired individuals struggling with addiction with information and resources to find the rehabilitation services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
