Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Sherman, MS.

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Sherman to receive treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When added to the reality that seniors often have other physical and psychological health conditions that should be handled at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help look for a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Programs which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment program, where a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive treatment program will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
