Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Roselle, NJ.

Substance abuse treatment facilities which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful 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 understand the unique challenges they face. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to participate fully in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational specific issues. Drug and Alcohol treatment programs which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to work through the difficulties in recovery.

Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehab centers for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need 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 healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
