Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Whitestone, NY.

Addiction rehabilitation programs which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to engage completely in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Substance abuse rehab programs which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to address the difficulties in recovery.

Rehabilitation professionals at addiction rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to establish which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
