Addiction rehab programs which serve the specific and 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 these clients feel they may experience when entering rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute completely in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related unique challenges. Addiction rehabilitation facilities which offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to address the challenges to treatment.
Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. 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 professionals who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish which medical drugs 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.
