Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Loma Mar, CA.

Substance abuse treatment facilities which cater to the 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 they may experience when entering rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute completely in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational specific issues. Substance abuse treatment centers which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to work through the challenges to treatment.

Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse rehabilitation programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in rehab. 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 professionals who are experienced with 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many need medical assistance not just through safe detox but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
