Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Tony, WI.

Addiction rehabilitation programs which provide services to the unique 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 seniors may feel they may experience when going to treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they face. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to participate fully in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific challenges. Addiction treatment centers which offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to work through the challenges to rehab.

Treatment professionals at addiction rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio 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 prone 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 their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
