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

Drug and alcohol treatment programs which serve the 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 they may experience when going to rehab and it provides 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 sometimes be less willing to contribute fully in group activities with the younger age group who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehab centers that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to work through the difficulties in recovery.

Treatment professionals at substance abuse treatment centers for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with these clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.

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