Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Wexford, PA.

Addiction rehab programs which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they face. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to contribute completely in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related unique issues. Addiction rehab centers that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to work through the challenges to treatment.

Treatment professionals at drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are there 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 physical or mental health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced 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 apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
