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

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Guilderland to get professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction 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 dangerous combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly often suffer with other physical and psychological health conditions that must be handled at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for addiction help look for a program that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation center, and a 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 first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed 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 comprehensive treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
