Drug and alcohol treatment programs which cater to the specific and 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 seniors may feel they may experience when entering treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific challenges they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to contribute fully in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique issues. Addiction rehab programs that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to address the challenges to treatment.
Treatment staff at substance abuse rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are there 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 specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
