Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an inpatient and outpatient basis. People with hearing impairment may be at a higher risk of substance abuse disorders because of their impairment. Having a serious handicap can be a source of discouragement, depression and apathy for both adolescents and adults who may turn to drugs or alcohol to cope with these feelings. Hearing impaired services are offered in Sabillasville 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 inhibited from receiving help due to their disability.
Addiction rehabilitation programs that have full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the most appropriate facilities to consider. Some facilities may only have part-time staff to assist and interpret this demographic, which this means hearing impaired clients won't benefit as much as everyone else and will miss out on important activities they should be attending daily. There may be video presentations provided which use sign language as well, which is also quite helpful.
There are organizations and agencies which provide hearing impaired people struggling 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).
