Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Avalon, CA.

Drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to engage completely in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related specific challenges. Addiction rehab facilities that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to address the difficulties in rehab.

Treatment staff at drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists who are prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.

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