Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Byrnes Mill, MO.

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Byrnes Mill to receive 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 occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When added to the reality that seniors often struggle with other physical and mental health issues that must be addressed concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for treatment look for a facility that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, and a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly 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.
