Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Sugar Loaf, NY.

Addiction treatment programs which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they face. In mixed age programs 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 generational and age related specific issues. Substance abuse rehabilitation facilities which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to address the difficulties in treatment.

Treatment professionals at drug and alcohol treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to figure out which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
