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

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Newcastle to get 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 stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When added to the fact that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and mental health ailments that should be handled at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for treatment should find a facility that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Programs which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient treatment facility, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
