Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Aurora, IA.

Substance abuse rehabilitation centers which serve the specific and 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 these clients feel when going to treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific challenges they face. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to engage fully in group activities with the younger age group who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique challenges. Addiction treatment centers that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to address the difficulties in rehab.

Treatment professionals at drug and alcohol rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals who are experienced with 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to determine which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
