Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Manchester, ME.

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Manchester to get treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly often struggle with other physical and mental health ailments that must be treated concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for help look for a facility that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse treatment and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation facility, 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 complete assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
