Addiction treatment facilities which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery services 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 understand the specific difficulties they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate completely in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational unique challenges. Addiction rehab centers which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to address the challenges to recovery.
Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs 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 taking into account any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this demographic 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 counselors who are experienced with such needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to determine which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
