  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Individuals who use methamphetamine are keen about the rapid vaporization of the drug, and spread the powdered methamphetamine on aluminum foil, heat the foil, and inhale the fumes that are released.
  • Chronic abuse of alcohol can impair white blood cell function and making the abuser more susceptible to infection.
  • After alcohol consumption, sons of alcoholics experience more of the pleasurable physiological effects associated with alcohol use compared with sons of non-alcoholics, although only immediately after drinking.
  • Having a sense of urgency in regard to seeking emergency medical treatment can help to limit the long term health consequences that are so often associated with a drug overdose.
  • It is important for an observer of a drug overdose to question the patient about what drugs they have taken, as by the time they reach the hospital, they may have be unconscious, and therefore may be unable to communicate.

Specialized in Hearing Impaired Clients

Individuals can become addicted to drugs no matter their handicap, disability or personal physical challenge. This sometimes makes individuals particularly more vulnerable to becoming involved in substance abuse, because of the difficult challenges that this can bring about in the person's life. This is true for individuals in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and treatment for substance abuse and addiction is sometimes needed. Deaf or hearing impaired individuals will require ASL or other assistance as part of their treatment needs, and there are drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers available which provide these services. Professional treatment counselors who know ASL and can provide other necessary assistance to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers.
