There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Emmalena to get professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly often struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that should be treated concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for treatment look for a facility that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction therapy and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment facility, and a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A complete treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
