Drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can 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 empathize and understand the specific difficulties they face. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to participate fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Drug and Alcohol rehab programs which offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to work through the difficulties in recovery.
Rehabilitation professionals at substance abuse 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 unique mental or physical health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the way group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical intervention not just through detoxification but to figure out which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
