Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an outpatient and inpatient basis. Individuals with a hearing impairment may be at a greater risk of substance abuse problems as a result of their disability. Having a serious impairment can be a source of discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adolescents and adults who could easily turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with these emotions. Hearing impaired services are offered in Punxsutawney to help resolve addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which offers treatment information and education in writing so that clients aren't hindered from getting better due to their disability.
Substance abuse rehabilitation programs with full time staff to provide assistance for the hearing impaired are the most appropriate programs to consider. Some programs may only have part-time staff to interpret and assist hearing impaired clients, and this means hearing impaired clients won't receive the same treatment as everyone else and will miss out on vital activities they should be involved with daily. There could be video presentations offered which use sign language as well, which can also be extremely helpful.
There are organizations and agencies which give hearing impaired people suffering with substance abuse issues with resources and information to discover and locate the rehabilitation services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
