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

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Unity to get professional help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse occurrences 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 combined with the fact that seniors often suffer with other physical and mental health ailments that should be addressed at the same time, it is recommended that any senior searching for help look for a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential treatment facility, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
