Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Laurel, DE.

Substance abuse treatment centers which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery services can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific issues. Addiction treatment facilities that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to address the challenges to recovery.

Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through safe detox 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 prolong their life.
