Substance abuse treatment programs which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery services can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to participate completely in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique issues. Addiction treatment facilities which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to address the challenges to rehab.
Treatment staff at addiction treatment programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the way group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
