Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Alva, OK.

There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Alva to get professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors commonly have other physical and psychological health ailments that should be handled concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for treatment should find a rehab program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment program, 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 evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
