Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Brewerton, NY.

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Brewerton to receive professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly often suffer with other physical and mental health ailments that should be addressed at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for treatment should find a rehab program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction therapy and general elderly health care, 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 senior has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
