Treatment Services for the Hearing Impaired - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Vernonia, OR.

Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are accessible in both an inpatient and outpatient setting. Individuals with a hearing impairment may be at a greater risk of substance abuse disorders as a result of their handicap. Having a major impairment can be a source of discouragement, depression and apathy for both adolescents and adults who could easily turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with these feelings and emotions. Hearing impaired treatment services are available in Vernonia 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 inhibited from getting better due to their disability.

Addiction rehab programs that have full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the most ideal programs to consider. Some rehabs only have part-time staff to interpret and assist this demographic, which this means hearing impaired clients may not make as much progress as everyone else and will miss out on important activities they should be involved with every day. There may be video presentations provided which use sign language as well, which is also extremely helpful.

There are agencies and organizations that can give hearing impaired people struggling with addiction with resources and information to find the treatment services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
