Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are accessible in both an inpatient and outpatient setting. People with hearing impairment may be at a greater risk of substance abuse problems due to their impairment. Having a major disability can be a root cause for distress, discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adults and adolescents who could easily turn to drugs or alcohol to deal with these emotions. Hearing impaired rehab services are available in Morehead 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 recovering due to their handicap.
Addiction treatment facilities with full time staff to help the hearing impaired are the most ideal programs to consider. Some programs may only have part-time staff to interpret and assist this demographic, and this means hearing impaired clients won't benefit as much as everyone else and will miss out on important activities they should be participating in every day. There may be video presentations provided which utilize sign language as well, which can also be very helpful.
There are organizations and agencies which supply hearing impaired people suffering with addiction with information and resources to find the recovery services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
