Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Avonmore, PA.

Addiction treatment programs 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 centered recovery services can be helpful 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 understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique issues. Substance abuse rehab facilities that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to work through the difficulties in rehab.

Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol rehab programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, 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 rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists 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 apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to establish which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
