Drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities 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 help with the initial stigma that seniors may 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 younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to participate completely in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Substance abuse rehabilitation centers which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to handle the difficulties in rehab.
Treatment professionals at drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the way group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to figure out which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
