There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Quincy 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 common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism 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 treacherous combination. When added to the fact that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that should be handled concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for treatment look for a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse therapy and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation facility, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
