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

Addiction treatment facilities which cater to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific challenges they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to engage completely in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific issues. Addiction treatment programs which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to handle the challenges to treatment.

Rehabilitation staff at addiction treatment centers for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum 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 way group and individual counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to determine which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
