Senior and older adult centered recovery can help 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 unique challenges they encounter. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage fully in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehab centers that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to address the challenges to rehab.

Rehabilitation professionals at addiction rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with these clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals who are experienced with 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 require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
