Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Rockport, MA.

Drug and alcohol treatment programs which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific challenges they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute completely in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related unique challenges. Addiction rehab programs that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to work through the difficulties in rehab.

Treatment staff at substance abuse rehab programs for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the way group and individual counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment 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.
