There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Daphne to receive treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common substance abuse issues 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 simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly often suffer with other physical and psychological health conditions that must be handled concurrently, it is suggested that any senior searching for treatment look for a program that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient treatment facility, and a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
