Drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery 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 specific challenges they face. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to engage fully in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific challenges. Substance abuse treatment programs which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to work through the challenges to recovery.
Treatment professionals at drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with these clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists who are prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the way group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through detoxification but to establish 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.
