Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Fairlee, VT.

Drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery can be helpful 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 age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to participate fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehab centers that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to address the challenges to rehab.

Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol treatment centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account 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 in reading material or treatment counselors who are experienced with such 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 recovery many need 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 clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
