Drug treatment services for the hearing impaired are available in both an outpatient and inpatient setting. Individuals with a hearing impairment may be at a greater risk of substance abuse problems as a result of their handicap. Having a serious impairment can be a source of distress, discouragement, depression and apathy for both adults and adolescents who may turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with these feelings. Hearing impaired services are accessible in Olympia to stop the cycle of addiction for these clients, with ASL and other assistance which includes treatment information and education in writing so that patients aren't inhibited from getting better due to their handicap.
Addiction treatment centers with full time staff to assist the hearing impaired are the most ideal facilities to select. Some facilities may only have part-time staff to assist and interpret hearing impaired clients, which this means hearing impaired clients won't receive the same treatment as everyone else and will miss out on important activities they should be attending every day. There may be video presentations offered which use sign language as well, which is also quite helpful.
There are organizations and agencies which can give hearing impaired individuals struggling with addiction with resources and information to discover and locate the rehabilitation services they need. One of these is the Deaf Off Drugs and Alcohol (DODA).
