Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an outpatient and inpatient setting. People with hearing impairment may be at a higher risk of substance abuse problems as a result of their handicap. Having a significant 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 treatment services are accessible in Gresham to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which provides treatment information and education in writing so that patients aren't prevented from receiving help due to their handicap.
Drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs that have full time staff to help the hearing impaired are the most ideal facilities to to look into. Some facilities may only have part-time staff to assist and interpret hearing impaired clients, and this means hearing impaired clients won't receive the same treatment as everyone else and will miss out on vital activities they should be involved with daily. There could be video presentations offered which use sign language as well, which is also really helpful.
There are agencies and organizations which can 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).
