Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Claremont, NC.

Drug and alcohol treatment facilities which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to engage completely in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational specific issues. Drug and Alcohol rehab programs which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to work through the challenges to rehab.

Treatment professionals at addiction rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are there to offer 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 impairments and challenges this group 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 professionals who are experienced with 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 require medical assistance not just through safe detox but to figure out which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
