Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Commack, NY.

Drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities which serve the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific challenges they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute completely in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific issues. Substance abuse treatment facilities that offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to handle the challenges to treatment.

Treatment professionals at substance abuse rehab facilities 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 mental or physical impairments and 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 professionals who are prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.

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