Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Athens, TX.

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Athens to receive help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that must be addressed concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for help should find a program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment facility, where a 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 thorough assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment program will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
