Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Onalaska, WA.

Addiction rehabilitation facilities which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to treatment and it provides 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 sometimes be less likely to engage fully in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific challenges. Substance abuse treatment programs which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to handle the challenges to recovery.

Rehabilitation professionals at substance abuse rehab centers for seniors and older adults are there 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 subset of client faces while in recovery. 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 professionals who are experienced with 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 assistance not just through detoxification but to determine which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
