Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Mentor, OH.

Substance abuse treatment programs which serve the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to contribute completely in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational specific challenges. Substance abuse rehab facilities which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to handle the challenges to rehab.

Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate the 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 recovery many require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
