Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Utica, MS.

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Utica to receive professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly often suffer with other physical and psychological health issues that must be handled at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help look for a facility that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential treatment center, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on 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 any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A complete treatment program will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
