Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Maxwell, IA.

Drug and alcohol treatment programs which cater to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering rehab and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they face. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to participate fully in group activities with the younger age group who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific challenges. Substance abuse rehab programs that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to address the challenges to recovery.

Treatment professionals at drug and alcohol treatment 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 physical or mental impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. 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 therapists who are experienced with such needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to establish which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
