Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Basom, NY.

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Basom to receive professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When added to the fact that the elderly often suffer with other physical and psychological health issues that must be handled concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for addiction help look for a program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation center, where 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 comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
