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

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Silverhill to get treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When combined with the reality that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and mental health issues that should be addressed at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for help look for a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment facility, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
