Addiction treatment facilities which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage completely in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Substance abuse rehabilitation programs which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to address the difficulties in treatment.
Treatment professionals at addiction 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 physical or mental health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists 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 need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to determine which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
