Drug and alcohol treatment centers which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the unique challenges they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to engage completely in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific challenges. Substance abuse treatment facilities that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to work through the difficulties in recovery.
Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal 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 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 need medical intervention not just through detoxification but to establish which medical drugs 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.
