Addiction treatment centers which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they face. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to engage fully in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related unique issues. Addiction rehabilitation centers that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to address the difficulties in treatment.
Treatment staff at substance abuse treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the way individual and group counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to figure out which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
