Addiction rehab centers which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique issues. Drug and Alcohol rehab facilities that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to handle the difficulties in treatment.
Rehabilitation professionals at addiction rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to determine which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
