Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Gresham, SC.

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Gresham to receive professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When added to the fact that the elderly often struggle with other physical and psychological health issues that should be handled concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for help look for a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential treatment facility, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment program will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
