There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Katy to receive help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that must be addressed at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for addiction help look for a program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction therapy and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation facility, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A thorough recovery program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
