Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Dublin, GA.

Substance abuse treatment facilities which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific challenges they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to engage fully in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Substance abuse rehabilitation programs that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to work through the challenges to rehab.

Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. 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 therapists 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through detoxification 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.
