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

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Shrub Oak to get help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that seniors often have other physical and mental health conditions that must be handled at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for addiction help should find a facility that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Programs which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation center, and 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 complete evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
