Substance abuse rehab facilities which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to participate fully in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related unique challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation programs which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to address the difficulties in recovery.
Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse treatment centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset 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 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 recovery 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 clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
