Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an inpatient and outpatient basis. Individuals with a hearing impairment can be at a higher risk of substance abuse disorders due to their impairment. Having a major impairment can be a source of discouragement, depression and apathy for both adults and adolescents who may turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with these emotions. Hearing impaired services are offered in Kankakee to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which offers treatment information and education in writing so that patients aren't prevented from recovering because of their impairment.
Drug and alcohol rehab centers with full time staff to help the hearing impaired are the best facilities to select. Some programs only have part-time staff to interpret and assist this demographic, 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 involved with every day. There may be video presentations offered which use sign language as well, which can also be really helpful.
There are agencies and organizations that give hearing impaired individuals struggling with addiction with information and resources to find the treatment services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
