Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Bolivar, PA.

Addiction rehabilitation facilities which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery services can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific challenges they encounter. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to contribute fully in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific issues. Addiction treatment facilities that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to work through the difficulties in treatment.

Treatment staff at substance abuse treatment centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer 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 group of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists who are experienced with such needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to determine which medical drugs 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.
