Substance abuse treatment facilities which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they face. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to engage completely in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehab centers which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to address the difficulties in rehab.
Rehabilitation professionals at substance abuse rehab centers for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the way group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
