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

There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Dresden to get professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common addiction problems 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 simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When added to the fact that the elderly commonly have other physical and psychological health ailments that must be addressed concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for treatment look for a rehab program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation center, where a medically 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 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 commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A complete treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
