Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Berwick, PA.

Addiction rehab facilities which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to participate fully in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation centers that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to handle the challenges to rehab.

Treatment staff at drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through detoxification but to establish which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
