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

Drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers which cater to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they encounter. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to participate fully in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related specific challenges. Substance abuse treatment programs that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to work through the challenges to rehab.

Rehabilitation professionals at addiction rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented 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 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 require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
