Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Breckenridge, MN.

Substance abuse treatment programs which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage fully in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific issues. Substance abuse treatment programs that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to handle the difficulties in treatment.

Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are experienced with the 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 need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
