There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Red Springs to receive help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When added to the reality that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health conditions that should be handled concurrently, it is important that any senior searching for addiction help should find a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation center, and a safe detoxification 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 complete evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive treatment program will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
