Addiction rehab facilities which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they face. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute fully in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific challenges. Substance abuse rehabilitation facilities that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to work through the challenges to treatment.
Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol 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 taking into account any unique mental or physical health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical intervention not just through detoxification but to establish which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
