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

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Chilhowee to get help for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and mental health ailments that should be addressed concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help should find 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 successful in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A complete treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
