Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Bristol, NH.

There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Bristol to get help for addiction so that they can happily 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 addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly often struggle with other physical and psychological health issues that should be addressed at the same time, it is recommended that any senior searching for help should find a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation center, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription 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 addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive recovery plan will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
