There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Grants Pass to get help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common substance abuse problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly commonly have other physical and mental health ailments that should be treated concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for treatment should find a rehab program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction treatment and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment program, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
