Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Sweet Home, OR.

Addiction rehab facilities which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they encounter. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to participate completely in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational specific challenges. Substance abuse rehabilitation centers which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to address the difficulties in recovery.

Rehabilitation staff at addiction treatment centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique mental or physical health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal 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 prone to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many require medical assistance not just through safe detox 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 sustain a long and happy life.
