Drug and alcohol rehab centers which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery services can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel 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 age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to participate completely in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational unique challenges. Addiction treatment centers which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to work through the challenges to recovery.
Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol treatment centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
