Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Oregon City, OR.

Drug and alcohol rehab facilities which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients 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 specific difficulties they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to engage fully in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related unique issues. Drug and Alcohol treatment programs which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to work through the difficulties in treatment.

Treatment staff at drug and alcohol rehab programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer 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 physical or mental impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors 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 safe detox 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.
