Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Electric City, WA.

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Electric City to receive treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors often struggle with other physical and psychological health ailments that should be addressed at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for treatment look for a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation center, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted 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 plan will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
