Drug and alcohol rehab facilities which serve the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering rehab and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they face. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to engage fully in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique issues. Substance abuse rehabilitation programs that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can offer a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to address the difficulties in rehab.
Rehabilitation professionals at addiction rehabilitation facilities 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 subset of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are experienced with such 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 require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to determine which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
