Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Shorterville, AL.

There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Shorterville to get professional help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly often struggle with other physical and mental health issues that should be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior searching for treatment look for a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction treatment and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient treatment program, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive treatment program will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
