There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Lancaster to receive help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health issues that must be handled at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for treatment look for a rehab program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation center, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
