Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Oak Hall, VA.

Addiction rehab facilities which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery 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 understand the unique challenges they face. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Addiction rehabilitation centers that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to address the challenges to rehab.

Rehabilitation professionals at drug and alcohol rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer 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 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 in reading material or treatment therapists 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 apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through detoxification but to establish 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.
