Drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers 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 recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific challenges they face. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to engage completely in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related specific issues. Substance abuse rehabilitation programs that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to work through the difficulties in recovery.
Treatment staff at addiction treatment programs for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many require medical assistance not just through safe detox but to establish which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
