There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Kirksville to receive help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When added to the fact that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and mental health issues that should be addressed at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for addiction help should find a rehab program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse treatment and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient treatment program, where a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A complete recovery program will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
