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

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Velda City to get professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly commonly have other physical and psychological health issues that must be addressed at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for treatment look for a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient treatment program, 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 comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
