Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Essie, KY.

Drug and alcohol treatment programs which serve the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery services can help 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 challenges they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to engage completely in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related unique challenges. Drug and Alcohol treatment programs that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to address the difficulties in treatment.

Treatment professionals at addiction rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced 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 prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through detoxification but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
