Addiction treatment programs which serve the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to participate completely in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational unique issues. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation facilities that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to address the difficulties in rehab.
Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehabilitation programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many require medical assistance not just through safe detox but to figure out which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
