Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Bristol, ME.

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Bristol to get professional help for addiction so that they can live the remainder 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 addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When added to the fact that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and mental health issues that should be handled concurrently, it is important that any senior searching for treatment should find a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse treatment and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient treatment facility, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A complete recovery plan will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
