Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Brookneal, VA.

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Brookneal to receive professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly often suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that must be treated at the same time, it is recommended that any senior searching for treatment look for a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Programs which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver substance abuse therapy and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential treatment center, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment program will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
