Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Rhododendron, OR.

Drug and alcohol treatment facilities which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to rehab and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate completely in group activities with the younger age group who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation centers which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to address the difficulties in rehab.

Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate such 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 determine which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
