Substance abuse rehab facilities which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients 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 mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique challenges. Addiction rehabilitation programs that offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to work through the difficulties in treatment.
Rehabilitation professionals at drug and alcohol rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists 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 establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
