There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in El Dorado to get professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the reality that seniors commonly have other physical and psychological health issues that must be addressed at the same time, it is recommended that any senior searching for addiction help look for a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation program, where a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A thorough treatment program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
