Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Yatahey, NM.

Substance abuse rehabilitation centers which provide services to 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 these clients feel when going to treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique challenges they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to contribute completely in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational specific issues. Addiction treatment centers that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to work through the challenges to recovery.

Treatment professionals at drug and alcohol treatment centers for seniors and older adults are there 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 physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset 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 therapists 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 detoxification but to establish which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
