Senior and older adult focused recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the unique challenges they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to participate fully in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related unique issues. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation programs that offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to address the difficulties in rehab.

Rehabilitation professionals at drug and alcohol rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum 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 means of group and individual counseling sessions.
