Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Beech Grove, KY.

Addiction rehab centers which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to participate completely in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational specific challenges. Substance abuse rehab centers that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to address the challenges to rehab.

Treatment staff at substance abuse rehabilitation facilities 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 considering any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this group 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 therapists who are experienced with such 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 establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
