There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in North Bend to receive help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a deadly combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly commonly have other physical and mental health conditions that should be handled concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for addiction help should find a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation program, and a medically 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 very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A complete recovery program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
