Drug and alcohol treatment programs which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they encounter. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage completely in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related unique challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehab facilities that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to work through the challenges to treatment.
Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique mental or physical health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to figure out which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
