Addiction treatment centers which cater to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific challenges they encounter. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to engage fully in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational unique challenges. Addiction rehab centers that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to handle the difficulties in recovery.
Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific physical or mental impairments and 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 counselors who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
