Drug and alcohol rehab programs which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering treatment and it offers support from others in the same 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 contribute completely in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Addiction rehab centers which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to handle the challenges to treatment.
Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older 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 demographic of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals who are experienced with the needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to determine which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
