Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Friday Harbor, WA.

Substance abuse treatment facilities which serve the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery 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 understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific issues. Substance abuse rehab facilities which offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to work through the difficulties in recovery.

Treatment staff at addiction treatment centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. 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 professionals who are prepared to accommodate the 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 treatment many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to figure out which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
