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

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Chestertown to get treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health ailments that must be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for help should find a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse therapy and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient treatment program, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough evaluation 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. A comprehensive treatment program will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
