Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Effort, PA.

Drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they face. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to engage fully in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific challenges. Substance abuse rehab centers which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to handle the difficulties in rehab.

Treatment professionals at drug and alcohol treatment programs for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older 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 verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists who are experienced with 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
