Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Bellvue, CO.

Addiction treatment centers which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment 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 understand the specific challenges they face. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to contribute completely in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique challenges. Substance abuse rehabilitation centers which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to work through the challenges to recovery.

Treatment staff at addiction rehab programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the way 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 require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
