Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Cortland, NY.

Drug and alcohol rehab programs which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may 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 entering treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they face. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to engage fully in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific issues. Substance abuse treatment programs that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to handle the difficulties in treatment.

Treatment staff at drug and alcohol treatment programs for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve 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 demographic of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists who are experienced with the 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 intervention not just through detoxification but to establish 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.
