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

Drug and alcohol treatment programs which cater to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery can be helpful with the initial stigma that these clients feel when going to treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who understand the unique difficulties they face. In mixed age facilities seniors and older adults can sometimes be less likely to participate completely in group activities with younger clients who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique issues. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation centers that offer a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can offer a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and comfort to address the challenges to treatment.

Rehabilitation professionals at addiction rehabilitation centers for seniors and older adults are there to offer their unique expertise with these clients to resolve generational, age-related and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this group of client faces while in recovery. 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 individual and group counseling sessions.

Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of recovery many require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to establish which prescriptions should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
