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

Addiction treatment centers which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when entering rehab and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to participate fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related unique challenges. Substance abuse treatment centers that offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to address the challenges to treatment.

Rehabilitation professionals at addiction treatment centers for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique mental or physical health issues or challenges this demographic of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate the 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 recovery many require medical assistance not just through safe detox 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.
