Substance abuse rehab centers which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering rehab 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 completely in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational specific issues. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation programs which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to handle the challenges to rehab.
Treatment staff at addiction rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the way 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 need medical assistance not just through safe detox but to figure out which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
