Drug and alcohol treatment programs which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery services can be helpful 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 age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute completely in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational specific issues. Substance abuse rehabilitation programs which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to work through the difficulties in rehab.
Rehabilitation professionals at substance abuse rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through safe detox but to establish which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
