There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Sheridan to receive professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When added to the fact that the elderly often struggle with other physical and mental health conditions that must be treated concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for treatment should find a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse therapy and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation center, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive recovery plan will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
