There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Oxford to receive professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When combined with the reality that seniors often suffer with other physical and psychological health conditions that should be handled at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for help look for a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation center, and a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
