Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Heidelberg, KY.

Substance abuse treatment programs which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute fully in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related unique issues. Substance abuse rehab programs that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to address the difficulties in rehab.

Treatment professionals at addiction treatment programs for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. 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 prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to determine which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
