Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are accessible in both an outpatient and inpatient setting. People with hearing impairment can be at a greater risk of substance abuse problems because of their disability. living with a significant handicap can be a root cause for discouragement, depression and apathy for both adults and adolescents who could easily turn to drugs or alcohol to deal with these feelings and emotions. Hearing impaired services are accessible in London to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which offers recovery and treatment information and education in writing so that clients aren't hindered from receiving help due to their disability.
Addiction rehabilitation facilities that have full time staff to provide assistance for the hearing impaired are the best programs to select. Some facilities only employ part-time staff to interpret and assist hearing impaired clients, which this means hearing impaired clients may not benefit as much as everyone else and will miss out on essential activities they should be participating in every day. There may 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 individuals struggling with addiction with resources and information to find the treatment services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
