There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Galveston to receive help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When added to the reality that the elderly commonly have other physical and psychological health ailments that must be handled at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for help should find a program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
