Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Thompson, PA.

Addiction rehabilitation programs which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered treatment can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique challenges they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute completely in group activities with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Addiction treatment programs which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to handle the difficulties in rehab.

Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol treatment programs for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced 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 group and individual 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 safe detox but to determine which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
