Franklin - Seniors/Older Adults
Seniors and older adult persons in Franklin, VT. are susceptible, if not predisposed, to drug or alcohol addiction much in the same way as any other man or woman. In fact, seniors and older adult persons are already using prescription medications which can also be abused. When combined with illicit drugs and alcohol, seniors and older adult persons are a significantly higher risk of severe health effects including death. The social stigmas which are connected to alcohol and drug abuse may keep many seniors and older adult persons out of the alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Franklin, VT. they desperately need. For this reason, there are drug and alcohol rehab facilities which specifically help this age range of the population. These alcohol and drug treatment programs understand the situations which are peculiar to the aging addict, and how to deal with addiction among these clients. Due to the fact seniors and older adults are already prone to disease and accidents, it is imperative that they seek treatment before any sickness or accident is brought on by their drug or alcohol addiction which can result in long term if not fatal damage.
