Addiction rehabilitation programs which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific challenges they face. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Addiction treatment facilities which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to work through the challenges to recovery.
Treatment professionals at substance abuse rehabilitation programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these 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 group of client faces while in rehab. 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 individual and group counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through detoxification but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
