Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Gouldsboro, ME.

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Gouldsboro to receive treatment 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 alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When added to the reality that seniors often struggle with other physical and mental health ailments that must be treated at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for help look for a program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient treatment program, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any 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 mental health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive recovery plan will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
