Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an inpatient and outpatient basis. Individuals with a hearing impairment may be at a greater risk of substance abuse problems due to their impairment. Having a serious disability can be a source of discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adults and adolescents who may turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with these feelings. Hearing impaired treatment services are offered in Independence 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 hindered from getting better because of their handicap.
Substance abuse rehab centers that have full time staff to help the hearing impaired are the most appropriate facilities to consider. Some rehabs only employ 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 attending daily. There could be video presentations available which use sign language as well, which can also be quite helpful.
There are organizations and agencies which can give hearing impaired people struggling with addiction with information and resources to find the treatment services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
