Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Brandy Station, VA.

Addiction rehabilitation centers which cater to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they encounter. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage fully in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation programs that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to address the challenges to rehab.

Treatment professionals at substance abuse rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented 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 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 medical drugs 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.
