Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Custer, MT.

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

Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are experienced with 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 treatment many require medical assistance not just through safe detox but to figure out which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
