Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Yantic, CT.

Addiction rehabilitation centers which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute completely in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Drug and Alcohol treatment facilities that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to address the challenges to treatment.

Treatment staff at drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. 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 professionals who are prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.

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