Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Danville, ME.

Substance abuse rehab facilities 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 focused recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific challenges they encounter. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to contribute fully in group activities with the younger age group who are not familiar with their generational and age related unique issues. Drug and Alcohol treatment centers which provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to address the challenges to treatment.

Treatment professionals at addiction rehab programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in recovery. 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 prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the means of individual and group 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 establish which medical drugs should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
