Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - San Marino, CA.

Substance abuse rehabilitation centers which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to rehab and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they encounter. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to engage fully in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related unique issues. Drug and Alcohol treatment centers which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to handle the challenges to rehab.

Treatment staff at substance abuse rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through detoxification but to figure out which medical drugs 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.
