Treatment Services for the Hearing Impaired - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Columbia, MD.

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 because of their impairment. Having a significant handicap can be a source of distress, discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adults and adolescents who could easily turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with these feelings. Hearing impaired services are available in Columbia 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 receiving help because of their disability.

Drug and alcohol rehab programs that have full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the most appropriate programs to consider. Some programs may only employ part-time staff to interpret and assist hearing impaired clients, which this means hearing impaired clients won't make as much progress as everyone else and will miss out on important activities they should be involved with every day. There may be video presentations available which use sign language as well, which can also be extremely helpful.

There are agencies and organizations that can supply hearing impaired individuals suffering with substance abuse issues with resources and information to find the treatment services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
