Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Murfreesboro, NC.

Addiction rehabilitation programs which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered treatment can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to engage fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related unique challenges. Substance abuse treatment facilities which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to work through the difficulties in recovery.

Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse treatment facilities 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 considering any specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this group 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 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 recovery 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 healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
