Substance abuse rehabilitation programs which cater to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific challenges they encounter. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to participate fully in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Substance abuse rehabilitation centers which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to work through the difficulties in treatment.
Treatment staff at drug and alcohol rehab centers for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique mental or physical health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are experienced with such needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to figure out which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
