Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Silver Spring, MD.

Drug and alcohol treatment facilities 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 can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to engage completely in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific challenges. Substance abuse rehab programs which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to address the challenges to rehab.

Rehabilitation professionals at addiction rehab centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the means of 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 assistance not just through detoxification but to establish 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 prolong their life.
