Drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery services can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage fully in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Drug and Alcohol treatment programs which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to handle the difficulties in rehab.
Treatment staff at addiction rehabilitation programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
