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

There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Guild to receive treatment for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly often suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that should be addressed concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for help look for a rehab program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction treatment and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation facility, where a medically safe detox 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 complete evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
