Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Tonalea, AZ.

Addiction treatment facilities which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to engage fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related unique issues. Substance abuse treatment centers that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to handle the difficulties in treatment.

Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse treatment programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique mental or physical health issues or challenges this group 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 or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many require medical assistance not just through safe detox but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
