Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Epworth, GA.

Addiction rehab programs which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial 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 rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they face. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute completely in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehab facilities which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to work through the difficulties in recovery.

Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer 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 unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to establish which prescriptions 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.
