Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Greene, ME.

Drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult centered treatment can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when entering rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they encounter. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to contribute fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Substance abuse rehabilitation centers which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and support to handle the difficulties in treatment.

Treatment staff at drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are there 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 demographic of client faces while in treatment. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material 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 prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery 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.
