Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are accessible in both an inpatient and outpatient basis. Individuals with a hearing impairment can be at a greater risk of substance abuse problems because of their impairment. Having a significant disability can be a source of discouragement, depression and apathy for both adolescents and adults who could easily turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with these feelings. Hearing impaired services are offered in Lebanon to help resolve addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which offers recovery and treatment information and education in writing so that patients aren't prevented from getting better due to their impairment.
Addiction treatment programs that have full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the most appropriate programs to consider. Some programs may only have part-time staff to interpret and assist this demographic, and this means hearing impaired clients may not make as much progress as everyone else and will miss out on important activities they should be participating in every day. There may be video presentations available which use sign language as well, which can also be really helpful.
There are agencies and organizations which provide hearing impaired people struggling with addiction with resources and information to find the recovery services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
There are 2 Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers offering this service in Lebanon, MO
