There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Blytheville to receive treatment for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When added to the fact that seniors often have other physical and psychological health issues that must be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior searching for addiction help should find a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction treatment and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient treatment program, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A complete recovery plan will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
