Drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers which cater to the unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel when going to treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they encounter. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to contribute fully in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related unique issues. Addiction treatment centers that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to handle the difficulties in rehab.
Rehabilitation staff at addiction rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment counselors 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 prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to figure out which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
