Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Haugan, MT.

Drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused treatment can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage fully in group activities with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Substance abuse rehabilitation facilities which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to handle the difficulties in treatment.

Treatment professionals at addiction treatment programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve 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 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 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 determine which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
