Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are accessible in both an outpatient and inpatient setting. Individuals with a hearing impairment may be at a higher risk of substance abuse problems because of their disability. Having a serious handicap can be a source of distress, discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adolescents and adults who may turn to drugs or alcohol to cope with these emotions. Hearing impaired services are available in Aberdeen to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which provides recovery and treatment information and education in writing so that clients aren't hindered from recovering due to their impairment.
Drug rehabilitation facilities that have full time staff to provide assistance for the hearing impaired are the most ideal facilities to select. Some programs only have 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 participating in daily. There may be video presentations provided which use sign language as well, which can also be really helpful.
There are agencies and organizations that provide hearing impaired people struggling with substance abuse issues with resources and information to find the rehabilitation services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
There are 3 Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers offering this service in Aberdeen, MD
