Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Fitzpatrick, AL.

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Fitzpatrick to get treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors often struggle with other physical and mental health ailments that should be treated at the same time, it is recommended that any senior searching for treatment should find a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential treatment program, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive treatment plan will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
