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

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Simonton to get professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically 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 at the same time, a treacherous combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly often have other physical and mental health issues that must be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior searching for treatment look for a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential treatment program, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
