Addiction treatment facilities which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery 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 empathize and understand the specific challenges they encounter. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique issues. Substance abuse rehabilitation programs which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to handle the difficulties in recovery.
Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehab centers for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this group 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 counselors who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the way individual and group counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to determine which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
