Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Thornwood, NY.

Drug and alcohol treatment facilities which cater to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic.

In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique challenges.
