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

Addiction treatment facilities which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific challenges they face. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to contribute fully in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related unique issues. Addiction rehabilitation facilities which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to handle the challenges to recovery.

Treatment professionals at addiction rehab centers for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate the 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 intervention not just through safe detox but to determine which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
