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

There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Nelson to get treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When added to the fact that seniors often suffer with other physical and psychological health issues that must be handled concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for help should find a facility that provides 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 elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation program, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A complete recovery plan will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
