Addiction treatment programs which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they face. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to participate completely in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational unique issues. Addiction treatment centers that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to address the challenges to treatment.
Rehabilitation staff at addiction treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with these clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique mental or physical health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals 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 recovery many require medical assistance not just through safe detox but to establish which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
