Substance abuse rehabilitation facilities which cater 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 they may experience when going to treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they encounter. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute completely in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related unique challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehab centers that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to work through the difficulties in rehab.
Treatment staff at drug and alcohol rehab programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many need medical assistance not just through safe detox but to determine 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.
