There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Erwin to get treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a deadly combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health ailments that must be addressed concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for help should find a facility that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient treatment program, and a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A complete recovery program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
