Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an inpatient and outpatient setting. People with hearing impairment may be at a greater risk of addiction disorders as a result of their impairment. Having a significant disability can be a source of discouragement, depression and apathy for both adults and adolescents who may turn to drugs or alcohol to deal with these emotions. Hearing impaired rehab services are offered in Evanston to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which provides treatment information and education in writing so that clients aren't hindered from getting better because of their handicap.
Substance abuse treatment centers that have full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the most appropriate programs to consider. Some rehabs only employ part-time staff to assist and interpret hearing impaired clients, and this means hearing impaired clients won't benefit as much as everyone else and will miss out on vital activities they should be involved with every day. There could be video presentations available which utilize sign language as well, which can also be quite helpful.
There are agencies and organizations which provide hearing impaired people suffering with substance abuse issues with resources and information to find the recovery services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
