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

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Channing to get treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a deadly combination. When added to the reality that the elderly often suffer with other physical and psychological health issues that should be handled at the same time, it is recommended that any senior searching for treatment look for a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation facility, where a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A complete treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
