Substance abuse rehab programs which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they face. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute fully in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific issues. Substance abuse rehab programs that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to address the difficulties in rehab.
Treatment staff at addiction rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared 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 group of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to figure out which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
