There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Rogersville to receive help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly often have other physical and mental health ailments that must be treated at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for treatment should find a program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction treatment and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient treatment facility, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
