Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Hallandale, FL.

Drug and alcohol rehab programs which cater to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to contribute fully in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation centers which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to address the difficulties in rehab.

Rehabilitation staff at addiction treatment programs for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. 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 counselors who are experienced with the 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 treatment many require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to determine which medical drugs 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.
