Substance abuse rehabilitation programs 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 going to treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they face. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to contribute fully in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational specific issues. Substance abuse rehab programs that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to handle the difficulties in treatment.
Rehabilitation professionals at addiction treatment centers for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique physical or mental impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through safe detox but to figure out which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
