Addiction treatment centers which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered treatment can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific challenges they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique issues. Substance abuse treatment programs that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to handle the challenges to treatment.
Treatment professionals at addiction rehab centers for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with these clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists 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 apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to establish which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
