Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Lynnfield, MA.

Addiction treatment programs which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial 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 going to treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they encounter. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related unique challenges. Addiction rehab programs which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to address the challenges to rehab.

Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol treatment programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related 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 rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
