Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Society Hill, SC.

Substance abuse rehabilitation centers which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they face. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute fully in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique issues. Substance abuse rehabilitation facilities that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to handle the challenges to rehab.

Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are experienced with 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 safe detox but to determine which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
