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

There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Nixon to get professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that must be treated at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for addiction help look for a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential treatment center, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A thorough recovery plan will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
