Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Franklin, PA.

Substance abuse rehabilitation facilities which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute completely in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific challenges. Substance abuse treatment facilities which offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to address the difficulties in rehab.

Treatment professionals at substance abuse treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
