Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are offered in both an inpatient and outpatient setting. People with hearing impairment can be at a higher risk of addiction disorders because of their impairment. Having a major impairment can be a source of discouragement, depression, unhappiness and apathy for both adolescents and adults who may turn to drugs or alcohol to cope with these emotions. Hearing impaired rehab services are offered in North Charleston to help resolve addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which provides recovery and treatment information and education in writing so that clients aren't prevented from getting better because of their impairment.
Substance abuse rehab programs that have full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the most appropriate facilities to consider. Some facilities only have part-time staff to interpret and assist hearing impaired clients, 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 utilize sign language as well, which can also be really helpful.
There are agencies and organizations which can give hearing impaired individuals struggling with substance abuse issues with resources and information to discover and locate the treatment services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
