Addiction treatment programs which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they face. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to contribute fully in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand 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 offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to work through the challenges to treatment.
Rehabilitation staff at addiction treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related 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 recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the way group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through detoxification but to determine 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.
