Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Felt, ID.

Substance abuse rehabilitation centers which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related unique challenges. Drug and Alcohol treatment facilities which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to address the difficulties in rehab.

Treatment professionals at substance abuse rehab programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals who are experienced with 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 treatment many need medical assistance not just through safe detox but to establish which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
