Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are available in both an outpatient and inpatient setting. People with hearing impairment can be at a higher risk of substance abuse problems as a result of their disability. Having a serious disability can be a source of distress, discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adults and adolescents who may turn to alcohol or drugs to deal with these feelings and emotions. Hearing impaired rehab services are available in Northport to help resolve addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which offers recovery and treatment information and education in writing so that patients aren't hindered from recovering due to their handicap.
Drug treatment facilities that have full time staff to provide assistance for the hearing impaired are the most appropriate facilities to select. Some rehabs may only have part-time staff to assist and interpret 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 involved with daily. There could be video presentations available which use sign language as well, which is also quite helpful.
There are agencies and organizations that can supply hearing impaired people suffering with substance abuse issues with resources and information to discover and locate the rehabilitation services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
