Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Middlebury, CT.

Drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage completely in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational unique issues. Substance abuse rehabilitation centers that offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to work through the difficulties in treatment.

Treatment professionals at drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum 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 experienced with such 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 establish which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
