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

Drug and alcohol treatment programs 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 services can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the unique challenges they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to engage fully in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational unique issues. Substance abuse rehab programs which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to handle the challenges to treatment.

Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared 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 specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists who are experienced with such needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance 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 clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
