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

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Leon to receive treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health ailments that must be handled at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for treatment should find a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Programs which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential treatment program, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
