Substance abuse rehabilitation centers which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique challenges they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute completely in group activities with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific challenges. Addiction treatment programs which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to handle the difficulties in rehab.
Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse treatment programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this demographic 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 in reading material or treatment therapists who are prepared to accommodate 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 require 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 clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
