Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - New Hyde Park, NY.

Drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs which provide services to the specific and unique 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 seniors may feel when entering treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they encounter. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute completely in group activities with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehab centers which offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to work through the difficulties in treatment.

Treatment staff at substance abuse rehabilitation programs for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with these 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 treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many require medical assistance 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 healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
