Addiction rehab centers which cater to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering rehab and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to engage completely in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related unique challenges. Drug and Alcohol treatment facilities which offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to address the difficulties in rehab.
Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum 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 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance 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 healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
