Substance abuse rehab facilities which cater to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific challenges they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to participate fully in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Substance abuse rehab centers that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to handle the challenges to recovery.
Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehabilitation programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the way group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to determine which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
