In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage completely in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique challenges.

Treatment staff at addiction treatment centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer 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 physical or mental health issues or challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.
