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

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Wingdale 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 physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors often struggle with other physical and mental health issues that should be handled concurrently, it is suggested that any senior searching for help look for a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation program, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
