Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are accessible in both an inpatient and outpatient setting. People with hearing impairment can be at a greater risk of substance abuse problems because of their impairment. Having a major impairment can be a source of distress, discouragement, depression and apathy for both adults and adolescents who could easily turn to drugs or alcohol to cope with these emotions. Hearing impaired rehab services are offered in Gaston to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which provides recovery and treatment information and education in writing so that patients aren't hindered from recovering as a result of their disability.
Drug rehabilitation centers that have full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the most appropriate programs to to look into. Some rehabs only have part-time staff to assist and interpret hearing impaired clients, which this means hearing impaired clients may not receive the same treatment as everyone else and will miss out on essential activities they should be attending daily. There could be video presentations provided which utilize sign language as well, which is also very helpful.
There are agencies and organizations that can give hearing impaired people struggling with addiction with information and resources to find the recovery services they need. One is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
