There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Coolidge to receive treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable 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 abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly often suffer with other physical and psychological health conditions that must be handled at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for treatment should find a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment center, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
