Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are accessible in both an inpatient and outpatient setting. People with hearing impairment can be at a greater risk of addiction problems as a result of their impairment. Having a serious disability can be a root cause for 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 offered in White Pine to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which includes recovery and treatment information and education in writing so that clients aren't prevented from receiving help due to their disability.
Drug rehab centers with full time staff to help the hearing impaired are the most appropriate facilities to consider. Some facilities only have 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 vital activities they should be participating in every day. There may be video presentations offered which use sign language as well, which can also be very helpful.
There are agencies and organizations which can provide hearing impaired individuals struggling with addiction with resources and information to find the recovery services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
