Addiction treatment centers which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering rehab and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they face. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to engage fully in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation facilities which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to work through the difficulties in rehab.
Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with these clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists who are prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
