Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Douglas, ND.

Addiction treatment facilities which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering rehab and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they face. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute completely in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific issues. Drug and Alcohol rehab programs which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to work through the difficulties in treatment.

Treatment professionals at substance abuse treatment programs for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. 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 prepared to accommodate 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many need medical assistance not just through safe detox but to determine which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
