Drug and alcohol treatment programs which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering rehab and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute completely in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehab facilities which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to work through the challenges to rehab.
Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse rehab programs for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate 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 need medical intervention not just through detoxification but to figure out which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
