Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Braithwaite, LA.

There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Braithwaite to get professional help 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 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 abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that seniors often have other physical and psychological health conditions that must be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help should find a program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Programs which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation program, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that any issues 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 address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
