Substance abuse treatment facilities which provide services to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to rehab and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific challenges they face. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute fully in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehab 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 recovery.
Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to figure out 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.
