There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Heppner to receive professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and mental health issues that should be treated at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for treatment should find a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential treatment facility, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive treatment program will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
