Addiction rehab centers which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique challenges they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute fully in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Addiction treatment facilities which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to handle the challenges to recovery.
Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol rehab centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific physical or mental impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists 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 need medical assistance not just through safe detox 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.
