Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Nanticoke, PA.

Substance abuse rehabilitation programs which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. 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 offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to contribute completely in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related unique challenges. Addiction rehab facilities which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to address the difficulties in recovery.

Treatment staff at addiction rehab centers for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum 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 prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the way 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 need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
