Substance abuse rehab programs which cater to 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 seniors may feel they may experience when entering rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they face. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to participate fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational unique issues. Addiction treatment facilities that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to work through the difficulties in rehab.
Treatment staff at drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs 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 physical or mental impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through safe detox but to figure out which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
