Addiction treatment programs which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the unique challenges they encounter. In age neutral programs 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 specific challenges. Addiction rehabilitation programs that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to address the challenges to treatment.
Treatment staff at drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists who are prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the way group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through detoxification but to establish which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
