Addiction treatment facilities which serve the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery services can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique challenges they face. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to participate fully in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific challenges. Addiction treatment programs which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to work through the challenges to rehab.
Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many require medical assistance not just through safe detox but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
