Substance abuse rehab centers which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute fully in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related unique issues. Addiction treatment centers that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to address the difficulties in treatment.
Rehabilitation professionals at substance abuse rehab 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 considering any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered 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 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 require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to determine which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
