Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Klamath River, CA.

Drug and alcohol treatment programs which provide services to the specific 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 seniors may feel they may experience when entering treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique challenges they face. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to engage completely in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Addiction rehab centers that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to work through the challenges to rehab.

Rehabilitation professionals at drug and alcohol treatment centers for seniors and older adults are prepared 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 physical or mental impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors 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 apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
