Substance abuse rehabilitation programs which serve the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they encounter. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to contribute fully in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Addiction rehab programs that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to handle the difficulties in rehab.
Treatment staff at drug and alcohol treatment centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with these clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors 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 require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to determine which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
