Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Revere, MA.

Drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific challenges they face. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate completely in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique issues. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation facilities that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to work through the difficulties in treatment.

Treatment staff at drug and alcohol treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique mental or physical health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals 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 intervention not just through detoxification but to figure out which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
