Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Lexington, NC.

Substance abuse rehabilitation facilities which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific challenges they encounter. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to participate completely in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific challenges. Substance abuse rehab programs which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to work through the challenges to rehab.

Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs 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 unique mental or physical health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists who are experienced with 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 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 clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
