Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Georgetown, CA.

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Georgetown to receive help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors often suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that should be handled at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for help look for a program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment facility, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often 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.
