Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Bristol, GA.

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Bristol to receive professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues 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 deadly combination. When coupled with the fact that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and mental health issues that must be handled at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for treatment should find a program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment facility, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on 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 addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A thorough recovery program will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
