Addiction treatment facilities which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery services can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they face. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to contribute fully in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational specific challenges. Substance abuse rehabilitation programs that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to work through the challenges to treatment.
Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehabilitation programs 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 considering any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate such 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 safe detox but to figure out which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
