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

Substance abuse rehabilitation centers which cater to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique challenges they face. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute completely in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific issues. Drug and Alcohol treatment programs that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to work through the difficulties in rehab.

Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse rehabilitation programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors 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 treatment many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to figure out which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
