Addiction rehabilitation programs 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 centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they face. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to contribute fully in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique challenges. Substance abuse rehab programs that offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to address the difficulties in recovery.
Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related 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 recovery. 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 the 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 recovery many require medical assistance not just through safe detox but to determine which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
