Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Lomira, WI.

Substance abuse rehabilitation programs which serve 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 help with the initial stigma that these clients 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 specific challenges they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage fully in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related unique challenges. Addiction treatment centers which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to work through the difficulties in recovery.

Rehabilitation professionals at drug and alcohol rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are there to offer 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 health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors 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 apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to determine which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
