Drug and alcohol treatment centers which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related unique issues. Addiction rehab facilities which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to work through the difficulties in rehab.
Treatment staff at substance abuse rehab programs for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with these clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists who are prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the way group and individual counseling sessions.
