Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Niantic, IL.

Substance abuse treatment facilities which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience 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 encounter. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute completely in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related unique issues. Addiction treatment programs which offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to handle the difficulties in recovery.

Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse treatment programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique mental or physical health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
