There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Greenville to receive treatment for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When added to the reality that seniors often have other physical and mental health conditions that should be addressed at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for help look for a rehab program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential treatment center, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective recovery program will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
