Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Viking, MN.

Addiction rehab facilities which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute fully in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific challenges. Addiction rehab facilities that offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to handle the challenges to rehab.

Treatment professionals at substance abuse treatment centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through safe detox but to determine which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
