Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Lincolnville Center, ME.

There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Lincolnville Center to receive professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When added to the fact that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that must be treated concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for treatment look for a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment facility, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force 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.
