Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Hepburn, IA.

Substance abuse rehabilitation centers which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique challenges they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to contribute completely in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific challenges. Substance abuse treatment centers which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to address the challenges to recovery.

Treatment staff at addiction rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate such 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 recovery many require medical assistance 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 healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
