Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Little Silver, NJ.

Addiction rehab centers which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique challenges they face. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute completely in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific challenges. Addiction treatment centers that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to work through the challenges to treatment.

Rehabilitation staff at addiction treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are experienced with 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention 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 healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
