Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Pittsburgh, PA.

Substance abuse treatment programs which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery services can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to contribute completely in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related unique issues. Addiction treatment centers that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to handle the challenges to recovery.

Rehabilitation professionals at addiction rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with these clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.

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