Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Greenfield, NH.

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Greenfield to get help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a deadly combination. When added to the reality that the elderly often have other physical and mental health ailments that should be treated concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help look for a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction treatment and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient treatment facility, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
