Addiction rehabilitation centers which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the unique challenges they face. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group sessions with younger clients who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation facilities that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to handle the difficulties in treatment.
Rehabilitation professionals at substance abuse rehabilitation facilities for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with these clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment therapists who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the means of group and individual 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 intervention not just through detoxification but to establish which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
