Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are accessible in both an outpatient and inpatient setting. Individuals with a hearing impairment may be at a higher risk of addiction problems because of their disability. Having a significant disability can be a root cause for discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adolescents and adults who may turn to drugs or alcohol to cope with these feelings and emotions. Hearing impaired rehab services are available in Marlborough to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which offers treatment information and education in writing so that clients aren't prevented from recovering because of their handicap.
Addiction treatment programs that have full time staff to provide assistance for the hearing impaired are the most appropriate facilities to consider. Some programs may only have part-time staff to assist and interpret this demographic, and this means hearing impaired clients won't make as much progress as everyone else and will miss out on vital activities they should be attending daily. There may be video presentations available which utilize sign language as well, which is also very helpful.
There are agencies and organizations that can provide hearing impaired individuals suffering with substance abuse issues with resources and information to find the recovery services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
