Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Lafayette, NJ.

Substance abuse rehabilitation facilities which serve the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute completely in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific challenges. Addiction rehab facilities which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to handle the difficulties in recovery.

Treatment professionals at substance abuse rehab programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are experienced with such needs of older clients by the means of individual and group 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 intervention not just through safe detox but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
