Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Lebo, KS.

Drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can help 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 challenges they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage completely in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific challenges. Addiction treatment programs that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to handle the challenges to treatment.

Treatment staff at substance abuse rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique physical or mental impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the means of individual and group 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 medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
