Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Quaker Hill, CT.

Drug and alcohol rehab centers which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to participate fully in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific issues. Addiction rehabilitation programs which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to work through the challenges to recovery.

Rehabilitation professionals at substance abuse rehab centers for seniors and older adults are prepared 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 unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists who are experienced with 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 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 healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
