Addiction rehab centers which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to participate completely in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation programs which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to address the difficulties in treatment.
Treatment professionals at substance abuse treatment programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve 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 group of client faces while in treatment. 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 experienced with the 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 figure out 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 sustain a long and happy life.
