Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Stovall, NC.

Substance abuse treatment programs which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they face. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to contribute fully in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Addiction rehab facilities 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 recovery.

Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared 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 physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals who are experienced with 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
