Addiction rehabilitation programs which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered treatment can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute completely in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Substance abuse treatment programs that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to work through the challenges to rehab.
Rehabilitation professionals at addiction treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique mental or physical health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
