Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Moapa, NV.

Addiction treatment centers which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered treatment can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique challenges they encounter. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to engage completely in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation facilities that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to work through the challenges to rehab.

Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this group 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 or treatment professionals who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the means of group and individual 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 intervention not just through detoxification 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.
