There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Kermit to receive professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When added to the reality that the elderly often struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that must be treated at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for help look for a program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment center, and a safe detoxification 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 assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A complete treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
