Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Danbury, CT.

Substance abuse treatment centers which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific challenges they face. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute fully in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehab centers which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to work through the difficulties in rehab.

Rehabilitation professionals at addiction treatment centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented 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 means of individual and group counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to determine which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
