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

There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Philadelphia to get help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life 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 abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a deadly combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly commonly have other physical and psychological health ailments that must be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior searching for help should find a facility that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction treatment and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential treatment facility, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective recovery plan will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
