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

There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Waveland to get help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable 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 addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors often suffer with other physical and mental health issues that should be addressed at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for treatment look for a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient treatment facility, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A complete recovery program will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
