Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Moran, WY.

Addiction rehabilitation programs which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they face. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to engage fully in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique issues. Drug and Alcohol rehab centers that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to handle the difficulties in recovery.

Rehabilitation staff at addiction treatment programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered 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 prone to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many need medical assistance 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 clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
