There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Lake Havasu City to get treatment for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When added to the fact that the elderly often struggle with other physical and psychological health issues that should be handled at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for addiction help should find a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse treatment and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation center, and a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A thorough treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
