There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Jasper to get help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health conditions that must be treated at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for addiction help should find a program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient treatment program, where a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
