Substance abuse rehab programs which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related unique challenges. Substance abuse treatment centers which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to handle the difficulties in treatment.
Rehabilitation professionals at addiction rehabilitation programs for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older 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 materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to figure out which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
