Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Westport, KY.

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Westport to receive professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse occurrences 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 simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When added to the fact that the elderly often have other physical and mental health issues that must be treated concurrently, it is important that any senior searching for treatment look for a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation program, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
