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

There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Oakfield to receive treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly often have other physical and psychological health ailments that must be addressed concurrently, it is suggested that any senior searching for help look for a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse therapy and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential treatment facility, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A complete treatment program will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
