Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Palmyra, IN.

Substance abuse rehabilitation programs which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they face. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute completely in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique issues. Substance abuse rehabilitation programs which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to address the difficulties in recovery.

Treatment staff at drug and alcohol treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique mental or physical health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors 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 recovery many need medical assistance not just through safe detox but to determine which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
