Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Tranquility, NJ.

Addiction rehab facilities which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute completely in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational unique issues. Substance abuse rehab programs which offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to handle the challenges to treatment.

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 group of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate 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 require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
