There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Hohenwald to receive professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When added to the fact that seniors commonly have other physical and psychological health issues that must be handled at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for treatment look for a facility that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation facility, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment program will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
