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

Drug and alcohol rehab centers which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they face. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage fully in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique issues. Substance abuse treatment centers which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to work through the difficulties in rehab.

Treatment staff at substance abuse rehabilitation programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio 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 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 intervention not just through detoxification but to determine which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
