Substance abuse rehab centers which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to engage completely in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific issues.
