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

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Patton to get treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the reality that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health issues that must be addressed concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for treatment should find a rehab program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient treatment center, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A thorough treatment program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
