Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Fall River, WI.

Addiction treatment facilities which serve the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific challenges they encounter. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate completely in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific issues. Drug and Alcohol treatment facilities that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to handle the challenges to recovery.

Treatment professionals at drug and alcohol treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists 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 treatment many need medical assistance not just through safe detox but to establish which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
