Drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers which cater to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific challenges they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to contribute completely in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific challenges. Substance abuse rehab programs that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to address the challenges to treatment.
Treatment staff at addiction rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists who are prepared to accommodate such 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 require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to determine which medical drugs 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.
