Drug and alcohol rehab facilities which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to contribute completely in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific challenges. Addiction treatment centers that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to work through the difficulties in treatment.
