Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are accessible in both an inpatient and outpatient setting. Individuals with a hearing impairment may be at a higher risk of substance abuse problems due to their impairment. living with a major handicap can be a source of distress, discouragement, depression and apathy for both adolescents and adults who may turn to drugs or alcohol to cope with these feelings. Hearing impaired services are available in St. Augustine to help resolve addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which provides treatment information and education in writing so that patients aren't hindered from receiving help due to their handicap.
Drug rehab programs that have full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the best programs to consider. Some programs only have part-time staff to interpret and assist hearing impaired clients, which this means hearing impaired clients won't receive the same treatment as everyone else and will miss out on vital activities they should be attending daily. There could be video presentations available which use sign language as well, which can also be quite helpful.
There are organizations and agencies that can give hearing impaired individuals struggling with substance abuse issues with resources and information to discover and locate the recovery services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
