Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are available in both an outpatient and inpatient setting. People with hearing impairment can be at a greater risk of addiction disorders as a result of their disability. Having a serious disability can be a source of distress, discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adolescents and adults who may turn to alcohol or drugs to deal with these feelings and emotions. Hearing impaired rehab services are accessible in Athens 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 prevented from recovering because of their handicap.
Drug and alcohol rehab programs with full time staff to help the hearing impaired are the best programs to consider. Some programs only employ part-time staff to assist and interpret this demographic, which this means hearing impaired clients won't make as much progress as everyone else and will miss out on essential activities they should be attending every day. There may be video presentations offered which use sign language as well, which is also very helpful.
There are agencies and organizations which give hearing impaired individuals suffering with addiction with resources and information to find the treatment services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
