Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are accessible in both an inpatient and outpatient basis. People with hearing impairment may be at a greater risk of addiction disorders due to their impairment. Having a major disability can be a root cause for discouragement, depression and apathy for both adults and adolescents who could easily turn to drugs or alcohol to cope with these feelings. Hearing impaired treatment services are available in Rocky Mount to help resolve addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which includes treatment information and education in writing so that patients aren't prevented from receiving help because of their impairment.
Substance abuse rehabilitation facilities that have full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the best facilities to consider. Some rehabs only employ part-time staff to interpret and assist this demographic, which this means hearing impaired clients may not benefit as much as everyone else and will miss out on important activities they should be involved with daily. There could be video presentations offered which utilize sign language as well, which is also quite helpful.
There are agencies and organizations which can provide hearing impaired people struggling with addiction with information and resources to discover and locate the treatment services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
