Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Antigo, WI.

Addiction treatment programs which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage completely in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational specific challenges. Addiction treatment centers which provide 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 recovery.

Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with these clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. 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 therapists 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 prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to figure out which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
