Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Enfield Center, NH.

Addiction rehab centers which serve the specific 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 going to treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific challenges they face. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to participate completely in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific issues. Drug and Alcohol treatment programs that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to address the challenges to treatment.

Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with these clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists who are experienced with such needs of older clients by the way group and individual counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many need medical assistance not just through safe detox but to figure out which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
