Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are accessible in both an inpatient and outpatient setting. People with hearing impairment can be at a higher risk of addiction problems due to their disability. Having a major handicap can be a source of discouragement, depression and apathy for both adolescents and adults who may turn to drugs or alcohol to deal with these feelings and emotions. Hearing impaired rehab services are accessible in Idaho Falls 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 hindered from getting better because of their handicap.
Addiction treatment facilities that have full time staff to help the hearing impaired are the best facilities to consider. Some programs may only have part-time staff to assist and interpret this demographic, and this means hearing impaired clients won't make as much progress as everyone else and will miss out on vital activities they should be participating in every day. There could be video presentations provided which utilize sign language as well, which is also really helpful.
There are organizations and agencies that can supply hearing impaired people suffering with substance abuse issues with resources and information to find the treatment services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
