Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Emily, MN.

Addiction treatment facilities which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused treatment 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 empathize and understand the specific challenges they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Substance abuse treatment programs that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to work through the challenges to recovery.

Rehabilitation professionals at substance abuse treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are there to offer 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 mental or physical impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate 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 treatment many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to determine 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.
