Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Weyerhaeuser, WI.

Substance abuse rehab programs which serve the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the unique challenges they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage fully in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational unique issues. Drug and Alcohol treatment facilities that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to address the difficulties in treatment.

Rehabilitation professionals at substance abuse treatment centers for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with these clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. 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 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 recovery many need medical intervention not just through detoxification but to determine which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
