Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Eddyville, IA.

Substance abuse rehabilitation facilities which cater to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique challenges they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific challenges. Substance abuse rehabilitation facilities which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to work through the difficulties in recovery.

Treatment professionals at substance abuse rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are there to offer 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 specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors 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 apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
