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

Addiction rehabilitation centers which cater to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to rehab and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to contribute completely in group activities with the younger age group who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation programs that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to handle the challenges to treatment.

Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists who are prepared to accommodate 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 require medical assistance not just through safe detox but to establish which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
