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

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Ponchatoula to receive treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the reality that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that must be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for help look for a rehab program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation center, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
