Substance abuse treatment programs which cater to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage completely in group activities with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique issues. Substance abuse rehab facilities that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to address the challenges to treatment.
