There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in South Jordan to receive professional help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that seniors often struggle with other physical and psychological health ailments that must be treated concurrently, it is important that any senior searching for help look for a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient treatment program, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted 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 address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
