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

Addiction rehab centers 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 treatment and it provides the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they face. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to participate completely in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related unique challenges. Addiction treatment programs which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual understanding, respect, and support to work through the challenges to treatment.

Treatment professionals at addiction rehab facilities 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 taking into account any specific physical or mental health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to determine which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
