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

Addiction treatment facilities which serve the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to rehab and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to engage fully in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehab centers which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to address the challenges to recovery.

Treatment professionals at addiction rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver 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 unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors 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 detoxification but to establish which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
