Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Lincoln, ME.

Addiction rehab facilities which cater to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused recovery services can be helpful with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who empathize and understand the unique challenges they face. In younger age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to contribute completely in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational specific challenges. Substance abuse rehabilitation centers that offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to handle the challenges to recovery.

Treatment professionals at drug and alcohol rehab programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be presented with audio or verbal 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 detoxification but to figure out which prescriptions 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.
