Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - New Virginia, IA.

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in New Virginia to receive treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly often have other physical and psychological health conditions that must be addressed concurrently, it is suggested that any senior searching for help should find a facility that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction treatment and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation program, where a medically 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 comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. An effective recovery program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
