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

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Springfield to get help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly often have other physical and mental health conditions that must be handled concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for addiction help look for a rehab program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation center, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person 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 any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A thorough treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
