Drug and alcohol rehab facilities which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused treatment can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering rehab and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to contribute completely in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Addiction treatment programs which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to address the difficulties in treatment.
Treatment staff at drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset 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 or treatment therapists who are prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many require medical assistance not just through safe detox but to figure out which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
