Addiction rehab programs which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the unique challenges they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to engage completely in group activities with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific challenges. Substance abuse rehab centers which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to address the challenges to rehab.
Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse rehab centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique physical or mental impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are experienced with the 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 recovery many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
