Substance abuse rehab facilities which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they encounter. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute completely in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational specific challenges. Substance abuse treatment facilities that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to address the difficulties in recovery.
Rehabilitation professionals at addiction 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 physical or mental impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, 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 the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
