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

There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Memphis to receive professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When added to the fact that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health issues that must be handled concurrently, it is suggested that any senior searching for treatment look for a program that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment program, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
