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

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

Treatment centers which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation center, and a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. An effective recovery program will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
