Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an outpatient and inpatient setting. Individuals with a hearing impairment can be at a higher risk of substance abuse disorders due to their disability. Having a serious handicap can be a source of distress, discouragement, depression and apathy for both adults and adolescents who may turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with these feelings. Hearing impaired rehab services are available in Sebring to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which includes recovery and treatment information and education in writing so that patients aren't inhibited from getting better as a result of their impairment.
Addiction rehab programs that have full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the best facilities to select. Some facilities only have part-time staff to assist and interpret hearing impaired clients, which this means hearing impaired clients may not receive the same treatment as everyone else and will miss out on important activities they should be participating in every day. There could be video presentations available which use sign language as well, which is also quite helpful.
There are agencies and organizations which can provide hearing impaired people suffering with substance abuse issues with information and resources to discover and locate the recovery services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
