Substance abuse treatment centers which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused treatment can help 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 understand the specific challenges they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to participate completely in group activities with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique issues. Substance abuse rehabilitation programs that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to address the difficulties in treatment.
Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehab programs 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 demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals who are experienced with such needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many require medical intervention not just through safe detox 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.
