Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Oak Grove, LA.

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Oak Grove to receive professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy 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 addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly commonly have other physical and psychological health ailments that should be handled at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for addiction help look for a facility that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential treatment facility, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
