Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Bellefontaine, MS.

There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Bellefontaine to get treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When added to the fact that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health ailments that must be addressed at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for help look for a program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Programs which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment program, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. An effective recovery plan will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
