Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Exira, IA.

Substance abuse rehabilitation facilities which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific challenges they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to participate completely in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehab facilities which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to handle the challenges to recovery.

Rehabilitation professionals at substance abuse rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are there 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 subset of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are experienced with such needs of older clients by the means of individual and group 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 assistance not just through safe detox but to establish which medical drugs 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.
