Substance abuse rehabilitation centers which provide services to the specific and unique 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 they may experience when entering rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they encounter. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage fully in group activities with the younger age group who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique issues. Drug and Alcohol treatment facilities which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to handle the challenges to recovery.
Treatment staff at substance abuse rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists who are prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through detoxification but to establish which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
