Substance abuse rehab centers which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to engage fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol treatment programs which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to address the difficulties in rehab.
Treatment staff at addiction treatment programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals who are experienced with 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, 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 their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
