Drug and alcohol treatment facilities which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the unique challenges they face. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to engage fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related unique challenges. Substance abuse rehabilitation centers that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to handle the difficulties in treatment.
Rehabilitation professionals at addiction rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are there 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 impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the means of 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 require medical assistance not just through safe detox but to determine which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
