Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Cynthiana, IN.

Addiction treatment facilities which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered treatment can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience 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 face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to contribute fully in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific challenges. Substance abuse treatment centers that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to work through the challenges to rehab.

Treatment staff at substance abuse rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists 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 apt 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 healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
