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

Drug and alcohol treatment programs which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery services can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to contribute fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational specific issues. Addiction treatment programs which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to work through the challenges to treatment.

Treatment staff at drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the means of group and individual 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 assistance not just through safe detox but to determine which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
