Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - West Islip, NY.

There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in West Islip to get professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When added to the reality that seniors often have other physical and psychological health conditions that must be addressed concurrently, it is important that any senior searching for treatment look for a program that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient treatment center, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
