Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Worthington, IN.

Addiction treatment centers which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique challenges they face. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to participate fully in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational unique issues. Substance abuse treatment centers that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to handle the difficulties in treatment.

Treatment professionals at drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
