Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Fairfield, ID.

Substance abuse rehabilitation facilities which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific challenges they face. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to participate fully in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Addiction rehab centers that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to handle the difficulties in rehab.

Treatment staff at addiction treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio 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 group and individual counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical intervention not just through detoxification but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
