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

There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Wrightsville to receive professional help 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 occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and mental health conditions that must be handled concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for help should find a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Programs which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver substance abuse therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation facility, and a safe detoxification 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 psychological health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A thorough treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
