Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Albemarle, NC.

Drug and alcohol rehab programs which serve the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute completely in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific challenges. Substance abuse treatment facilities which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to address the challenges to rehab.

Treatment staff at drug and alcohol treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in rehab. Program materials 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 group and individual counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to establish which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
