Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Baker, NV.

There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Baker to receive help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly often have other physical and mental health ailments that should be treated at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for treatment look for a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction treatment and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment program, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive treatment program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
