Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Shadyside, OH.

Drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities which provide services to the unique 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 seniors may feel they may experience when entering treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they encounter. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to participate fully in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational unique issues. Substance abuse rehab centers that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to handle the challenges to recovery.

Rehabilitation professionals at drug and alcohol rehab facilities 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 specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this demographic 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 or treatment professionals who are experienced with such needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
