There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Bisbee to get professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse 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 deadly combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health ailments that must be handled at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for treatment look for a program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient treatment facility, where a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A thorough recovery program will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
