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

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Gulf Shores to get treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that should be treated concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for help should find a facility that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation program, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective recovery program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
