Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Bland, VA.

Substance abuse rehabilitation programs which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering rehab and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to participate fully in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique challenges. Substance abuse rehabilitation centers that offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to work through the difficulties in recovery.

Treatment staff 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 taking into account any specific 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 verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists 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 apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
