Addiction rehabilitation facilities which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery services can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they face. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related unique issues. Drug and Alcohol treatment centers that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to address the challenges to rehab.
Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals who are experienced with such needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
