Drug and alcohol rehab facilities which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can be helpful 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 face. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage fully in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational unique challenges. Drug and Alcohol treatment programs which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to handle the difficulties in rehab.
Treatment staff at drug and alcohol rehab programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the means of 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 detoxification but to figure out 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.
