Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Providence, UT.

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Providence to get help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a deadly combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health ailments that should be handled at the same time, it is recommended that any senior searching for addiction help should find a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation program, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
