There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in New Tazewell to receive help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When added to the fact that seniors commonly have other physical and psychological health issues that should be handled concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for help look for a facility that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver substance abuse treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation center, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive recovery plan will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
