Substance abuse treatment programs which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to 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 programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific challenges. Substance abuse rehab facilities which offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to handle the challenges to treatment.
Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with these clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this group 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 in reading material or treatment professionals 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through safe detox but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
