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

Drug and alcohol treatment facilities 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 treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they face. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to participate completely in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Substance abuse rehabilitation facilities that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to work through the challenges to treatment.

Treatment staff at addiction rehab programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate such 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 recovery many require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
