Drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they encounter. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to participate completely in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific challenges. Addiction rehab programs which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to address the difficulties in treatment.
Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with these clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique mental or physical health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals 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 recovery many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
