Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Springfield, CO.

Drug and alcohol rehab programs which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute fully in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific challenges. Substance abuse rehab programs that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to address the difficulties in rehab.

Rehabilitation professionals at addiction treatment programs for seniors and older adults are there 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 specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced 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 group and individual counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to establish which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
