Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Dunbar, PA.

Addiction rehab programs which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique challenges they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to engage completely in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique challenges. Substance abuse treatment programs that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to address the difficulties in recovery.

Treatment staff at drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with these clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type 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 assistance 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 prolong their life.
