There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Columbiana to get treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems 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 simultaneously, a deadly combination. When coupled with the reality that seniors commonly have other physical and psychological health ailments that should be addressed at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for treatment look for a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver substance abuse treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation center, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive recovery plan will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
