Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Oakton, VA.

Substance abuse rehab centers which cater to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial 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 understand the specific difficulties they face. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to engage fully in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation centers which offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to address the challenges to rehab.

Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehab programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio 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 intervention not just through safe detox but to establish which medical drugs 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.
