Addiction rehabilitation centers which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific challenges they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to engage fully in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific issues. Addiction rehab programs that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to address the difficulties in rehab.
Rehabilitation professionals at addiction treatment programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver 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 group of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the way individual and group 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 intervention not just through safe detox but to determine which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
