Substance abuse rehabilitation programs which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they encounter.
