Substance abuse treatment facilities which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they face. In younger 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 generational and age related unique issues. Addiction treatment centers which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to work through the challenges to rehab.
Treatment professionals at addiction rehab centers 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 considering any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type 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 apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to determine which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
