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

There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Kathleen to get treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy 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 cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a deadly combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly commonly have other physical and psychological health issues that should be addressed concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for help should find a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient treatment center, and 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 complete evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
