Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Ovid, NY.

Substance abuse rehabilitation centers which cater to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to engage fully in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Addiction rehab programs which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to address the challenges to recovery.

Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol treatment centers for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists who are experienced with such needs of older clients by the way group and individual 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 determine 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.
