Addiction rehab centers which cater to the specific 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 they may experience when entering treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific challenges they encounter. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage completely in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique issues. Addiction rehab facilities that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to handle the difficulties in treatment.
Treatment professionals at addiction rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum 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 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to determine which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
