There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Wheatland to receive treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When added to the reality that seniors often struggle with other physical and psychological health issues that should be treated concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for help should find a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse therapy and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation center, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective recovery plan will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
