Senior and older adult focused recovery services 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 mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute fully in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related specific challenges.

Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists who are experienced with such needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.
