Drug and alcohol rehab programs which cater to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage fully in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational unique challenges. Addiction rehabilitation facilities that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to handle the challenges to recovery.
Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol treatment facilities 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 considering any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors 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 need medical intervention not just through detoxification but to establish which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
