Substance abuse rehabilitation centers which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute completely in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational specific challenges. Substance abuse rehab programs that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to work through the challenges to rehab.
Treatment staff at drug and alcohol rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in rehab.
