Substance abuse rehabilitation centers which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to contribute completely in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Substance abuse rehabilitation facilities which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to handle the challenges to treatment.
Treatment staff at drug and alcohol rehab centers for seniors and older adults are prepared 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 specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced 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 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 need medical assistance not just through safe detox but to establish which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
