Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Evans, GA.

Addiction treatment centers which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their 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 contribute fully in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehab programs which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to handle the challenges to recovery.

Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to figure out which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
