Addiction rehabilitation programs which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can be helpful 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 difficulties they encounter. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to engage fully in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational specific issues. Drug and Alcohol treatment centers that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to handle the difficulties in rehab.
Rehabilitation staff at addiction treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique physical or mental impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio 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.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through safe detox but to figure out which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
