Substance abuse rehab centers which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering rehab and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they encounter. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to participate completely in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific challenges. Addiction rehab centers which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to address the challenges to rehab.
Treatment staff at substance abuse rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum 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 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to determine which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
