Addiction rehabilitation programs which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused treatment can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they face. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to engage completely in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related unique issues. Drug and Alcohol treatment programs which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to handle the challenges to treatment.
Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol rehab centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique mental or physical health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals 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 treatment many require medical assistance not just through safe detox but to determine which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
