Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Alexandria, KY.

There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Alexandria to receive professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly often struggle with other physical and mental health ailments that must be addressed at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for addiction help look for a rehab program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction treatment and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation program, where a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A thorough treatment plan will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
