Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Chamberlain, ME.

Addiction rehab facilities which serve the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering treatment and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the unique challenges they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to contribute completely in group activities with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation facilities which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to handle the challenges to rehab.

Treatment staff at substance abuse treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique physical or mental health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in recovery. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment counselors who are prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the way group and individual counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many need medical intervention not just through safe detox but to figure out which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
