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

There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Tappahannock to receive treatment for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When added to the fact that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health ailments that should be treated at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for treatment look for a program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Programs which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment center, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed 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 plan will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
