Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Plessis, NY.

Substance abuse treatment facilities which cater to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to 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 at times be less willing to participate completely in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Substance abuse treatment programs that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to work through the difficulties in treatment.

Rehabilitation professionals at substance abuse treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the means of 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 require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to determine which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
