There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Martin to receive help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcoholism 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 added to the reality that the elderly often struggle with other physical and mental health conditions that must be treated concurrently, it is recommended that any senior searching for treatment look for a facility that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction treatment and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient treatment facility, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A thorough treatment program will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
