Addiction treatment facilities which cater 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 treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific challenges they encounter. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to contribute fully in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related specific challenges. Addiction rehabilitation centers which offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to work through the difficulties in rehab.
Rehabilitation professionals at drug and alcohol treatment centers for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists who are prepared to accommodate 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many need medical assistance 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.
