There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Madisonville to get help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and mental health ailments that must be handled concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for help look for a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A complete treatment program will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
