Drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery services can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage completely in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related unique issues. Addiction treatment programs that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to work through the challenges to treatment.
Rehabilitation professionals at addiction rehabilitation programs 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 impairments and challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are experienced with 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 assistance not just through safe detox but to determine which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
