Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Coventry, RI.

Substance abuse treatment facilities which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique challenges they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to participate fully in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational unique challenges. Substance abuse treatment centers which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to work through the difficulties in rehab.

Rehabilitation staff at addiction treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on 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 subset of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal 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 individual and group 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 detoxification but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
