Addiction rehab centers which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful 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 rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific challenges they face. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to engage fully in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique issues. Substance abuse treatment facilities which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to address the challenges to recovery.
Rehabilitation professionals at drug and alcohol treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through safe detox but to determine which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
