Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Prince Frederick, MD.

Addiction rehabilitation programs which cater to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering rehab and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they face. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute fully in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational unique issues. Substance abuse treatment programs which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to handle the difficulties in rehab.

Treatment staff at drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are experienced with 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many require 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.
