Drug and alcohol rehab centers which cater to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may 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 going to rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific challenges they face. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational specific issues. Substance abuse rehab centers that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to work through the difficulties in rehab.
Treatment staff at addiction rehabilitation programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on generational, age-related 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 curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented 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 way group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to establish which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
