Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Friendship, WI.

Substance abuse rehabilitation centers which provide services to 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 they may experience when entering rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to engage completely in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related unique challenges. Addiction rehab centers which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to address the challenges to recovery.

Rehabilitation professionals at drug and alcohol treatment programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum 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 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 require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to figure out which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
