There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Moulton to receive treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally 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 abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly often struggle with other physical and psychological health ailments that should be handled at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help should find a facility that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive recovery plan will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
