Addiction rehabilitation centers which cater to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific challenges they encounter. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute fully in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Drug and Alcohol treatment centers that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to address the challenges to treatment.
Treatment staff at drug and alcohol treatment programs for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique mental or physical health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
