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

Drug and alcohol treatment centers which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to engage completely in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehab centers that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to work through the difficulties in rehab.

Treatment professionals at drug and alcohol rehab programs 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 considering any specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal 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 individual and group counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to figure out 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.
