Addiction rehabilitation facilities which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to contribute fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related unique issues. Addiction treatment facilities which offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to handle the challenges to treatment.
Rehabilitation professionals at substance abuse rehabilitation 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 specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the means of individual and group 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 intervention not just through safe detox but to establish which prescriptions 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.
