Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Lake Lillian, MN.

Addiction rehab programs 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 recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering rehab and it provides 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 participate completely in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation facilities that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to handle the difficulties in treatment.

Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehab programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver 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 impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
