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

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Smithfield to receive professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly often struggle with other physical and mental health issues that should be treated at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for treatment should find a rehab program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Programs which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential treatment facility, where 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 thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A thorough recovery plan will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
