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

Substance abuse rehab centers which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery can be helpful 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 specific difficulties they face. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to engage completely in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific challenges. Substance abuse rehabilitation programs that offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to work through the difficulties in treatment.

Treatment staff at drug and alcohol treatment centers 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 specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this group 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 in reading material 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 apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many require medical assistance not just through safe detox but to determine which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
