Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Genoa, NY.

Addiction treatment facilities which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute fully in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational unique challenges. Drug and Alcohol treatment facilities that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to work through the challenges to recovery.

Treatment staff at drug and alcohol rehab programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering 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 delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate 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 recovery many require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
