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

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Miller to get professional 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 common substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors often have other physical and psychological health ailments that must be addressed at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for treatment look for a rehab program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Programs which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation center, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A thorough treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
