Addiction rehab facilities which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they encounter. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to contribute completely in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific issues. Substance abuse rehab programs that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to handle the challenges to recovery.
Rehabilitation staff at addiction treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering 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 produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to establish which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
