Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Glade Spring, VA.

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Glade Spring to get help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly commonly have other physical and psychological health issues that must be handled at the same time, it is recommended that any senior searching for treatment should find a facility that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation program, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A thorough treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
