There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Corning to get treatment for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism 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 treacherous combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health issues that must be handled concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for help look for a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient treatment facility, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment program will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
