Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Fairforest, SC.

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Fairforest to receive professional help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and mental health issues that must be addressed at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for treatment look for a rehab program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Programs which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation center, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment program will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
