Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are accessible in both an outpatient and inpatient basis. People with hearing impairment may be at a greater risk of substance abuse disorders due to their disability. Having a major impairment can be a source of discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adolescents and adults who may turn to alcohol or drugs to deal with these emotions. Hearing impaired services are available in Idabel to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which includes treatment information and education in writing so that clients aren't prevented from receiving help due to their disability.
Substance abuse rehabilitation facilities with full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the best programs to consider. Some facilities may only have part-time staff to interpret and assist this demographic, and this means hearing impaired clients may not receive the same treatment as everyone else and will miss out on important activities they should be attending every day. There may be video presentations provided which utilize sign language as well, which is also extremely helpful.
There are agencies and organizations which provide hearing impaired individuals suffering with addiction with information and resources to discover and locate the recovery services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
