There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Hayesville to receive professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When coupled with the fact that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that must be addressed at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for addiction help should find a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation facility, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment program will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
