Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Hacienda Heights, CA.

Substance abuse treatment facilities which cater to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific challenges they encounter. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute completely in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation centers that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to handle the difficulties in rehab.

Treatment staff at substance abuse rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset 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 professionals 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 detoxification 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 prolong their life.
