Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Chautauqua, KS.

Addiction treatment facilities which serve the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to participate completely in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related unique challenges. Substance abuse rehabilitation programs which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to handle the challenges to rehab.

Treatment staff at addiction treatment centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique physical or mental impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum 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 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish 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.
