Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Hurdle Mills, NC.

Drug and alcohol treatment programs which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the unique challenges they face. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to participate fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational specific challenges. Substance abuse rehab centers which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to address the difficulties in rehab.

Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to figure out which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
