Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an inpatient and outpatient basis. People with hearing impairment can be at a higher risk of substance abuse disorders as a result of their disability. Having a major handicap can be a root cause for distress, discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adolescents and adults who could easily turn to drugs or alcohol to deal with these feelings and emotions. Hearing impaired rehab services are offered in Rocky Mount to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which provides recovery and treatment information and education in writing so that clients aren't hindered from getting better because of their disability.
Substance abuse treatment programs that have full time staff to provide assistance for the hearing impaired are the most appropriate programs to consider. Some rehabs may only have part-time staff to interpret and assist hearing impaired clients, and this means hearing impaired clients may not make as much progress 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 is also quite helpful.
There are organizations and agencies which give hearing impaired people suffering with substance abuse issues with information and resources to find the rehabilitation services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
