Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Careywood, ID.

Addiction rehabilitation programs which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they face. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to participate fully in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational specific issues. Drug and Alcohol rehab centers that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to address the challenges to treatment.

Treatment staff at addiction rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with these clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account 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 professionals who are prepared to accommodate the 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 treatment 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.
