There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Pelham to get help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly often suffer with other physical and mental health ailments that must be addressed at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for treatment should find a facility that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, where a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A thorough treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
