Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Sycamore, IL.

Drug and alcohol rehab facilities which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they face. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage fully in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation facilities that offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to address the challenges to rehab.

Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the means of group and individual 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 establish which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
