Addiction treatment facilities which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique challenges they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to contribute completely in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational specific issues. Addiction rehabilitation centers which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to work through the difficulties in recovery.
Treatment professionals at substance abuse rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate such 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 treatment many need medical intervention not just through detoxification but to establish which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
