Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Caledonia, MS.

Substance abuse rehab programs which serve the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to participate completely in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol treatment programs which 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 staff at drug and alcohol rehab programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this subset 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 or treatment counselors who are experienced with such needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many need medical assistance not just through safe detox but to establish which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
