Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an inpatient and outpatient basis. People with hearing impairment can be at a greater risk of substance abuse problems because of their impairment. living with a serious handicap can be a root cause for discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adults and adolescents who may turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with these emotions.

Some facilities only employ part-time staff to assist and interpret hearing impaired clients, and this means hearing impaired clients may not benefit as much as everyone else and will miss out on vital activities they should be involved with every day. There could be video presentations offered which use sign language as well, which can also be extremely helpful.
There are agencies and organizations which can supply 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).
