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

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Cardwell to get 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 substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When added to the reality that the elderly often have other physical and mental health conditions that must be addressed concurrently, it is important that any senior searching for treatment look for a rehab program that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Programs which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient treatment program, where a medically 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 very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A thorough treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
