There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Maumelle to get help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors often struggle with other physical and psychological health ailments that should be treated at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for treatment should find a program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential treatment center, and a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A complete recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
