There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Seymour to get treatment for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When added to the reality that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health ailments that should be addressed at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for help should find a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction therapy and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment program, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. An effective recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
