There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Sabattus to receive treatment for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a deadly combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that should be handled at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help look for a rehab program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction treatment and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation program, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the 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 in the first place. A comprehensive treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
