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

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Opelousas to get help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the reality that seniors commonly have other physical and mental health conditions that must be treated concurrently, it is recommended that any senior searching for treatment should find a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, and a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough 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 to begin with. A comprehensive treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
