Addiction rehab programs which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they face. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to engage completely in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related unique challenges. Addiction rehabilitation programs which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to work through the difficulties in recovery.
Treatment staff at drug and alcohol 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 taking into account any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to determine which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
