Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Ascutney, VT.

Addiction rehabilitation facilities which provide services to the 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 seniors may feel when going to treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they face. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to participate fully in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique challenges. Addiction treatment facilities that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to address the challenges to rehab.

Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehabilitation 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 mental or physical impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists who are experienced with 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
