Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Newtown, VA.

Addiction rehab facilities which cater to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they face. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute completely in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related unique challenges. Addiction treatment facilities which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to handle the difficulties in recovery.

Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehabilitation programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate 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 recovery many need medical assistance not just through safe detox but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
