Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Parma, OH.

Addiction rehabilitation programs which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help 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 understand the unique difficulties they face. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute completely in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Drug and Alcohol treatment facilities that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to address the challenges to treatment.

Treatment professionals at substance abuse treatment centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through safe detox 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 prolong their life.
