Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Bettles, AK.

Addiction rehabilitation programs which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute fully in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Substance abuse rehabilitation programs which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to address the challenges to recovery.

Treatment staff at drug and alcohol treatment programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the way group and individual counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to figure out which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
