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 as a result of their disability. living with a significant handicap can be a source of distress, discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adults and adolescents who may turn to drugs or alcohol to cope with these emotions. Hearing impaired treatment services are offered in Attleboro to help resolve addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which offers recovery and treatment information and education in writing so that clients aren't inhibited from receiving help because of their handicap.
Substance abuse rehab facilities that have full time staff to help the hearing impaired are the best facilities to consider. Some facilities only employ part-time staff to interpret and assist this demographic, and this means hearing impaired clients won't receive the same treatment as everyone else and will miss out on important activities they should be involved with daily. There may be video presentations provided which use sign language as well, which can also be very helpful.
There are agencies and organizations which 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).
