Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - South Hill, VA.

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in South Hill to receive help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the reality that seniors commonly have other physical and psychological health conditions that must be treated at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for help should find a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Programs which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient treatment program, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
