Drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities which cater to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate completely in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational specific challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehab programs that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and solace to address the challenges to recovery.
Treatment staff at addiction rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to establish which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
