Drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique challenges they encounter. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational specific challenges. Addiction rehabilitation facilities which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to address the challenges to recovery.
Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists who are experienced with such needs of older clients by the way individual and group counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through safe detox but to establish which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
