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

Addiction treatment centers which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to engage completely in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Drug and Alcohol treatment centers which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to address the difficulties in recovery.

Treatment professionals at addiction treatment programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique mental or physical 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 or treatment counselors 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 prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
