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

Addiction rehab centers which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can 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 entering rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to contribute completely in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related unique issues. Substance abuse rehab centers which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to work through the difficulties in rehab.

Treatment staff at drug and alcohol rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with these 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 demographic of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the means of group and individual 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 detoxification but to determine which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
