Addiction rehab facilities which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific challenges they face. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to contribute fully in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehab programs which offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to handle the challenges to rehab.
Treatment staff at substance abuse treatment centers 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 impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the way group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment 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.
