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

Drug and alcohol treatment facilities which cater to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific challenges they encounter. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate completely in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational unique issues. Substance abuse rehabilitation programs that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to handle the challenges to recovery.

Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared 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 health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type 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 intervention not just through detoxification but to determine which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
