Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Powderly, KY.

Substance abuse rehabilitation facilities which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute fully in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related unique issues. Drug and Alcohol rehab programs which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to address the difficulties in rehab.

Rehabilitation staff at addiction treatment centers 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 physical or mental health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors 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 recovery 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 healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
