There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Springfield to get treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the fact that seniors often struggle with other physical and mental health ailments that must be addressed concurrently, it is recommended that any senior searching for treatment look for a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential treatment facility, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A complete recovery program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
