Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Sandy Springs, SC.

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Sandy Springs to receive help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors often suffer with other physical and mental health ailments that should be handled at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for help should find a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction treatment and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation center, where a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and mental 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. An effective recovery program will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
