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

There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Maryknoll to receive professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a deadly combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly often have other physical and psychological health issues that should be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for help look for a rehab program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse therapy and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation facility, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A thorough recovery program will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
