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

Substance abuse rehab facilities which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to participate completely in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique issues. Substance abuse rehab programs which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to handle the difficulties in recovery.

Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented 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 treatment many need medical intervention not just through detoxification but to establish which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
