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

Substance abuse rehab facilities which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they face. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to engage completely in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific challenges. Addiction rehabilitation facilities which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to work through the difficulties in recovery.

Rehabilitation professionals at drug and alcohol treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve 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 subset 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 or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate the 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 need medical assistance not just through safe detox but to establish which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
