Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Leavenworth, IN.

Drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to engage fully in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation programs that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to address the difficulties in treatment.

Rehabilitation professionals at addiction treatment centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on 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 rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate such 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 detoxification but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
