Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Bruneau, ID.

Substance abuse treatment facilities which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to participate completely in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific issues. Addiction treatment facilities that offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to handle the challenges to rehab.

Treatment professionals at drug and alcohol rehab programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to determine which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
