Substance abuse rehab centers which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique challenges they encounter. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to engage completely in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational specific challenges. Addiction treatment facilities that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to work through the difficulties in rehab.
Treatment staff at addiction treatment programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental impairments and 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 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 prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to establish which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
