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 substance abuse problems as a result of their handicap. Having a serious impairment 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 feelings and emotions. Hearing impaired treatment services are offered in Denton to help resolve addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which includes treatment information and education in writing so that clients aren't hindered from receiving help because of their handicap.
Substance abuse rehabilitation centers with full time staff to provide assistance for the hearing impaired are the most appropriate facilities to to look into. Some facilities may only have part-time staff to assist and interpret hearing impaired clients, and this means hearing impaired clients won't make as much progress 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 can also be very helpful.
There are organizations and agencies which supply hearing impaired people suffering with addiction with information and resources to discover and locate the recovery services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
