Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - East Olympia, WA.

There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in East Olympia to get help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly often suffer with other physical and psychological health ailments that must be addressed at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for addiction help should find a rehab program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
