Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Woodbury, VT.

Addiction rehab centers which cater to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused treatment can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they face. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to engage fully in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique issues. Drug and Alcohol rehab centers which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to address the difficulties in recovery.

Treatment professionals at addiction rehabilitation programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these 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 subset of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate 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 recovery many need medical intervention not just through safe detox 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 prolong their life.
