Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Gray, LA.

There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Gray to receive 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 stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a deadly combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health ailments that must be treated concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for help look for a rehab program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Programs which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient treatment program, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
