There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Warren to receive treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly often struggle with other physical and psychological health issues that must be handled at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for treatment should find a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation facility, and a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
