There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Lake Village to receive professional help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that should be treated at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for help should find a program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation center, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective recovery program will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
