Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Oldham, SD.

Drug and alcohol treatment programs which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute completely in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Addiction treatment centers that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to work through the difficulties in rehab.

Treatment professionals at drug and alcohol rehab centers for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type 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 safe detox but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
