Addiction rehab programs which provide services to the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to contribute completely in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational specific issues. Substance abuse rehab programs that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to work through the difficulties in treatment.
Rehabilitation professionals at addiction treatment programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the means of group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many require medical assistance not just through detoxification but to figure out which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
