Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Sugar Creek, MO.

There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Sugar Creek to get professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly often have other physical and psychological health issues that must be treated at the same time, it is recommended that any senior searching for treatment should find a program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Programs which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient treatment facility, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A thorough treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
