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

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Wellman to get help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health issues that should be handled at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for help should find a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation center, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment program will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
