Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Scotia, SC.

Addiction treatment programs which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering rehab and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational specific challenges. Addiction rehabilitation facilities that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to address the difficulties in treatment.

Treatment professionals at substance abuse rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific 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 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 individual and group counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
