Addiction treatment 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 recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they encounter. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to participate fully in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique issues. Addiction rehabilitation facilities that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to work through the challenges to recovery.
Rehabilitation staff at addiction treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver 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 health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered 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 way group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to figure out which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
