Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Steward, IL.

Substance abuse rehab facilities 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 services can help with the initial stigma that these clients 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 challenges they encounter. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to participate fully in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational unique challenges. Substance abuse rehabilitation programs which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to work through the challenges to rehab.

Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse treatment facilities 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 taking into account any specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists 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 apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to figure out 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.
