Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - American Fork, UT.

Drug and alcohol rehab programs which serve the unique 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 these clients feel they may experience when going to rehab and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they face. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to participate fully in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific issues. Addiction rehabilitation facilities which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to address the challenges to recovery.

Treatment professionals at drug and alcohol rehab centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with these clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are experienced with such 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 safe detox but to establish which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
