Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Holton, IN.

Substance abuse rehab programs which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate completely in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific issues. Substance abuse rehab facilities which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to address the difficulties in rehab.

Treatment staff at drug and alcohol rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced 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 group and individual 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 assistance 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 healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
