Substance abuse rehabilitation facilities which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when entering rehab and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they face. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to contribute completely in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational unique challenges.
