There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Afton to get help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse 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 dangerous combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly often struggle with other physical and mental health issues that must be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior searching for help look for a program that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient treatment facility, where a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
