Drug and alcohol treatment facilities which cater to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they face. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group activities with the younger age group who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific challenges. Addiction treatment facilities which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to handle the difficulties in treatment.
Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehabilitation programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in recovery. 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 apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through safe detox but to establish 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 prolong their life.
