Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Hakalau, HI.

Addiction treatment centers which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to engage fully in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique issues. Substance abuse rehab centers 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 difficulties in treatment.

Treatment staff at addiction rehabilitation programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. 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 counselors who are experienced with the 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 recovery many require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to figure out which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
