Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are accessible in both an inpatient and outpatient setting. People with hearing impairment may be at a greater risk of substance abuse problems due to their disability. Having a serious disability can be a root cause for discouragement, depression and apathy for both adolescents and adults who may turn to drugs or alcohol to deal with these feelings and emotions. Hearing impaired rehab services are offered in Richmond 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 prevented from receiving help due to their disability.
Drug rehabilitation centers that have full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the most ideal programs to select. Some programs only employ part-time staff to assist and interpret hearing impaired clients, and this means hearing impaired clients won't make as much progress as everyone else and will miss out on vital activities they should be participating in every day. There could be video presentations provided which use sign language as well, which is also extremely helpful.
There are agencies and organizations which supply hearing impaired people suffering with substance abuse issues with information and resources to find the treatment services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
