Substance abuse rehab facilities which serve the specific 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 seniors may feel they may experience when entering rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to participate fully in group activities with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Substance abuse rehab programs which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to handle the challenges to treatment.
Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehab centers for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in recovery. 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 prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
