There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Prescott Valley to receive 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 issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a deadly combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that should be treated at the same time, it is recommended that any senior searching for help should find a rehab program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A thorough treatment plan will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
