Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Sunman, IN.

Addiction rehab facilities which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique challenges they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate completely in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Substance abuse rehab programs that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to work through the difficulties in treatment.

Treatment professionals at substance abuse treatment centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve generational, age-related 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 treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are experienced with 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 treatment many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to determine which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
