Drug and alcohol rehab programs which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute completely in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique challenges. Drug and Alcohol treatment centers which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to work through the difficulties in treatment.
Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol rehab facilities for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with these clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the way individual and group counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many need 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 clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
