Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Moody A F B, GA.

Addiction rehab facilities which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute completely in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific challenges. Addiction rehabilitation facilities that offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to work through the challenges to treatment.

Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehabilitation programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with these clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique mental or physical health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through detoxification but to figure out which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
