Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Slade, KY.

There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Slade 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 physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse 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 deadly combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly commonly have other physical and mental health ailments that must be addressed at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for help look for a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Programs which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment 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 complete assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive treatment program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
