Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an inpatient and outpatient setting. People with hearing impairment can be at a greater risk of addiction disorders because of their handicap. Having a significant disability can be a root cause for discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adolescents and adults who could easily turn to drugs or alcohol to cope with these feelings. Hearing impaired services are accessible in Klamath Falls to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which provides treatment information and education in writing so that clients aren't prevented from receiving help due to their impairment.
Substance abuse rehabilitation programs that have full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the best programs to consider. Some programs 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 important activities they should be participating in daily. There may be video presentations available which use sign language as well, which can also be very helpful.
There are agencies and organizations which can provide hearing impaired people suffering with addiction with information and resources to discover and locate the recovery services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
