Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Shannon, MS.

Substance abuse rehab facilities which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific challenges they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage fully in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation centers that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to address the challenges to treatment.

Treatment professionals at addiction rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish which prescriptions 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.
