Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Millinocket, ME.

Drug and alcohol treatment facilities which serve the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more helpful for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to rehab and it offers the peer support from individuals in their stage of life who understand the specific challenges they face. In age neutral facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less willing to participate fully in group sessions with the younger age group who don't understand their age related and generational unique challenges. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation facilities which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to work through the difficulties in treatment.

Treatment professionals at addiction rehab programs for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific mental or physical health issues or challenges this group of client faces while in treatment. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type 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 apt to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of treatment many require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to determine which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of their recovery plan and their transition to a healthy lifestyle that will prolong their life.
