Addiction rehabilitation centers which serve the specific needs of seniors and older adults can 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 going to treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group activities with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Addiction rehab centers which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to handle the difficulties in treatment.
Rehabilitation professionals at substance abuse treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the way individual and group counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
