Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are accessible in both an outpatient and inpatient basis. People with hearing impairment may be at a greater risk of addiction disorders due to their disability. Having a serious disability 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 feelings and emotions. Hearing impaired rehab services are available in Panama City 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 getting better due to their impairment.
Addiction rehab centers that have full time staff to help the hearing impaired are the most appropriate programs to select. Some rehabs may only employ part-time staff to interpret and assist this demographic, which this means hearing impaired clients may not benefit as much as everyone else and will miss out on vital activities they should be attending every day. There may be video presentations available which use sign language as well, which can also be quite helpful.
There are agencies and organizations which can supply hearing impaired people struggling with substance abuse issues with resources and information to find the treatment services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
