There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Nunnelly to receive treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When added to the reality that seniors often struggle with other physical and mental health conditions that must be treated concurrently, it is important that any senior searching for treatment look for a facility that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation center, and a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A complete treatment plan will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
