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

Substance abuse treatment programs which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery services can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering rehab and it provides 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 at times be less likely to contribute fully in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational unique issues. Substance abuse treatment programs which offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to work through the challenges to rehab.

Treatment staff at addiction rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum 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 prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to determine which medical drugs 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.
