Substance abuse rehab centers which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered treatment can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique challenges they face. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to contribute fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational specific issues. Substance abuse treatment centers that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to handle the challenges to treatment.
Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists who are experienced with 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 require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to figure out which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
