Addiction rehabilitation facilities which cater to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they encounter. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to engage fully in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Addiction treatment facilities which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to handle the challenges to treatment.
Treatment staff at addiction rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are prepared 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 impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate such 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 require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
