Addiction treatment programs which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can 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 treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related unique issues. Drug and Alcohol treatment centers which provide 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 professionals at drug and alcohol treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique mental or physical health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals who are experienced with such needs of older clients by the way group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
