Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Blackwater, MO.

There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Blackwater to receive treatment for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When added to the reality that seniors commonly have other physical and psychological health conditions that should be addressed concurrently, it is suggested that any senior searching for help should find a facility that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation center, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A thorough recovery program will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
