Addiction treatment facilities which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering rehab and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the unique challenges they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute completely in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific issues. Drug and Alcohol treatment facilities that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to handle the difficulties in recovery.
Rehabilitation staff at addiction treatment programs 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 physical or mental impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered 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 individual and group counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through safe detox but to determine 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.
