Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Lakewood, NJ.

Substance abuse rehabilitation centers which serve the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they face. In mixed age facilities 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 generational and age related specific issues. Substance abuse rehabilitation centers which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to address the challenges to treatment.

Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique mental or physical health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum 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 group and individual counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
