Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Cairo, WV.

Drug and alcohol rehab programs which cater to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to treatment and it offers 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 likely to contribute fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Addiction rehab facilities that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to address the challenges to treatment.

Rehabilitation staff at addiction treatment programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists who are prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical intervention not just through detoxification but to determine 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.
