There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Hope to receive professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When combined with the reality that seniors often struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that must be addressed at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for help should find a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction treatment and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient treatment center, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A thorough treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
