Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Blythedale, MO.

There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Blythedale to get professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the reality that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health issues that should be treated concurrently, it is suggested that any senior searching for help should find a facility that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment facility, where a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A thorough recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
