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

Addiction rehab programs 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 be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel 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 sometimes be less likely to engage fully in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique issues. Substance abuse rehabilitation facilities which provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to work through the difficulties in 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 generational, age-related 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 curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type in reading material or treatment professionals who are experienced with 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to figure out which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
