Addiction rehab facilities which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful 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 empathize and understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage completely in group activities with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Addiction treatment centers which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to work through the challenges to treatment.
Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique mental or physical health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the way group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many require medical assistance not just through safe detox but to establish which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
