Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Fruitvale, TN.

Substance abuse treatment programs which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they face. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to engage fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehab facilities which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to handle the difficulties in recovery.

Treatment staff at drug and alcohol rehab programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related 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 rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals 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 require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to determine which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
