Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Niles, MI.

Drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they face. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to participate completely in group activities with the younger age group who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific challenges. Substance abuse rehab centers which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to handle the difficulties in rehab.

Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol rehab facilities 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 taking into account any unique physical or mental impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to figure out which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
