Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an outpatient and inpatient basis. People with hearing impairment can be at a higher risk of addiction problems as a result of their disability. Having a major impairment can be a source of distress, discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adolescents and adults who may turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with these feelings and emotions. Hearing impaired rehab services are offered in Oak Ridge to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which includes treatment information and education in writing so that clients aren't hindered from recovering due to their disability.
Addiction rehab programs with full time staff to help the hearing impaired are the best facilities to to look into. Some facilities may only employ part-time staff to interpret and assist hearing impaired clients, which this means hearing impaired clients may not make as much progress as everyone else and will miss out on important activities they should be involved with daily. There may be video presentations available which use sign language as well, which can also be very helpful.
There are agencies and organizations which can give hearing impaired people struggling with addiction with information and resources to find the treatment services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
