Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an outpatient and inpatient setting. Individuals with a hearing impairment may be at a greater risk of addiction problems because of their impairment. Having a major impairment can be a root cause for distress, discouragement, depression and apathy for both adolescents and adults who may turn to drugs or alcohol to cope with these emotions. Hearing impaired rehab services are accessible in Concord to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which includes recovery and treatment information and education in writing so that patients aren't inhibited from getting better because of their handicap.
Substance abuse treatment centers that have full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the most appropriate programs to consider. Some programs may only employ part-time staff to interpret and assist this demographic, and this means hearing impaired clients won't make as much progress as everyone else and will miss out on important activities they should be participating in daily. There could be video presentations offered which use sign language as well, which is also really helpful.
There are agencies and organizations that supply 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).
