Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Virginia State University, VA.

Substance abuse treatment centers which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery services can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering rehab and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific challenges they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to engage fully in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related unique challenges. Addiction rehab centers that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to address the challenges to recovery.

Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the means of group and individual 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 intervention 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 healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
