Addiction treatment centers which serve the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they face. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute fully in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehab facilities which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to address the challenges to recovery.
Treatment staff at addiction rehabilitation facilities 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 specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the way group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to determine which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
