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

There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Zachary to get professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the fact that seniors often suffer with other physical and psychological health issues that must be treated concurrently, it is recommended that any senior searching for treatment look for a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation center, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A thorough recovery plan will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
