Drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific challenges they face. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to contribute fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational unique issues. Substance abuse rehab facilities which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to handle the difficulties in treatment.

Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists who are experienced with 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 prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
