Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an inpatient and outpatient setting. People with hearing impairment may be at a greater risk of addiction disorders because of their handicap. Having a major disability can be a source of distress, discouragement, depression and apathy for both adults and adolescents who could easily turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with these feelings. Hearing impaired rehab services are accessible in Dripping Springs to help resolve addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which includes recovery and treatment information and education in writing so that clients aren't inhibited from recovering because of their impairment.
Substance abuse rehabilitation programs that have full time staff to provide assistance for the hearing impaired are the best programs to consider. Some rehabs may only have part-time staff to interpret and assist this demographic, which this means hearing impaired clients may not make as much progress as everyone else and will miss out on essential activities they should be involved with daily. There could be video presentations offered which use sign language as well, which can also be extremely helpful.
There are agencies and organizations which provide hearing impaired people struggling with substance abuse issues with information and resources to find the rehabilitation services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
