Seniors or Older Adults - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Machias, ME.

Substance abuse rehabilitation 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 centered recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering treatment and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who understand the specific difficulties they encounter. In younger age facilities seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to contribute fully in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their age related and generational unique issues. Addiction rehab centers that provide a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a connection of mutual respect, understanding, and solace to work through the challenges to treatment.

Rehabilitation staff at substance abuse treatment programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this group 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 in reading material or treatment professionals who are experienced with 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 alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many require medical intervention not just through detoxification but to determine 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.
