Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Bluffton, IN.

Addiction treatment centers which serve the 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 seniors may feel they may experience when entering treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to participate fully in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational unique issues. Drug and Alcohol rehab facilities which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to handle the challenges to rehab.

Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol treatment centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio 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 group and individual counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to figure out which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
