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

Addiction rehab facilities which cater to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery services 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 difficulties they face. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to engage fully in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Addiction rehab programs that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to handle the challenges to rehab.

Treatment staff at addiction rehabilitation programs 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 taking into account any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in treatment. 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 counselors who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the way group and individual counseling sessions.

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