Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Kilbourne, IL.

Drug and alcohol treatment programs which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can 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 they may experience when entering rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they face. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to engage fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific challenges. Addiction rehab facilities that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to address the difficulties in rehab.

Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse rehab programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are experienced with such needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many require medical intervention not just through safe detox 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.
