Substance abuse rehabilitation programs which cater to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific challenges they encounter. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to participate completely in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique issues. Substance abuse rehabilitation centers 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 challenges to treatment.
Rehabilitation staff at addiction treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific 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 group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to figure out which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
