Drug and alcohol rehab facilities which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to participate completely in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique issues. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation facilities that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to address the challenges to recovery.
Treatment staff at drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
