There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Columbia to receive help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health ailments that should be treated concurrently, it is recommended that any senior searching for help look for a facility that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation program, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment program will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
