Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Irene, TX.

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Irene to receive professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and mental health conditions that should be treated concurrently, it is suggested that any senior searching for help look for a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient treatment facility, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A complete recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
