Seniors or Older Adults - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Standish, ME.

Drug and alcohol rehab centers which provide services to the specific needs of seniors and older adults may be more helpful for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that seniors may feel they may experience when going to treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they face. In mixed age programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to contribute completely in group sessions with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related unique issues. Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation facilities that provide a more age relating forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual respect, understanding, and support to handle the difficulties in recovery.

Treatment staff at drug and alcohol rehab centers for seniors and older adults are there to deliver their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also considering any unique physical or mental health issues or 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 prepared to accommodate 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 assistance not just through safe detox but to determine which medical drugs 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.
