Drug and alcohol rehab centers which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to participate fully in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique challenges. Addiction rehab programs which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to handle the difficulties in rehab.
Treatment professionals at drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering 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 presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, 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 their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
