Addiction treatment centers which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to participate fully in group activities with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Substance abuse rehabilitation programs which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to handle the difficulties in rehab.
Treatment professionals at substance abuse treatment programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors 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 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 prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
