Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are accessible in both an inpatient and outpatient basis. People with hearing impairment may be at a greater risk of substance abuse disorders due to their handicap. living with a major impairment can be a source of distress, discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adults and adolescents who may turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with these emotions.

There may be video presentations provided which use sign language as well, which can also be really helpful.
