Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Frankfort, IN.

Drug and alcohol rehab centers which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific challenges they face. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate completely in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific issues. Substance abuse rehabilitation centers that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to work through the challenges to rehab.

Rehabilitation professionals at substance abuse rehab centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program materials 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 prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to establish which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
