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

There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Patterson to receive professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the reality that seniors often have other physical and mental health ailments that should be addressed concurrently, it is suggested that any senior searching for treatment look for a program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation facility, and a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A thorough recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
