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

Addiction rehabilitation programs which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery services can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute fully in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific issues. Addiction treatment programs which offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to handle the difficulties in recovery.

Rehabilitation staff at addiction treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum 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 individual and group 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 detoxification but to figure out which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
