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

Substance abuse treatment centers which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they encounter. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to contribute completely in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational unique challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation facilities that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to handle the challenges to recovery.

Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this demographic 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 counselors who are experienced with 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to figure out which prescriptions 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.
