Substance abuse rehabilitation programs which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to engage completely in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Substance abuse rehab programs which offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to work through the difficulties in recovery.
Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to figure out which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
