Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Wasco, OR.

Drug and alcohol treatment facilities which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute completely in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational unique challenges. Substance abuse rehab facilities which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to address the challenges to recovery.

Rehabilitation professionals at addiction rehabilitation programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique mental or physical health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented 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 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 intervention not just through safe detox but to establish which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
