There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Happy Valley to receive help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the fact that seniors often struggle with other physical and psychological health ailments that should be handled at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help look for a program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse treatment and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential 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 thorough evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. An effective recovery plan will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
