Drug and alcohol rehab programs which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery services can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they face. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational unique challenges. Addiction treatment programs that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to handle the difficulties in rehab.
Treatment staff at addiction rehab centers for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique mental or physical health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are experienced with 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 require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to determine which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
