Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Herod, IL.

Substance abuse rehabilitation programs which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered treatment can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to rehab and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they face. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to contribute completely in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Substance abuse treatment facilities that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to handle the challenges to recovery.

Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehab programs for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the way group and individual counseling sessions.

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