Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Fort Leonard Wood, MO.

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Fort Leonard Wood to receive help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a deadly combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly often struggle with other physical and mental health ailments that should be handled at the same time, it is recommended that any senior searching for treatment look for a facility that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation facility, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive treatment plan will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
