There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Springfield to receive treatment for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly often suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that must be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help should find a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction treatment and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, where a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A thorough treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
