There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Baxley to get treatment for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When combined with the reality that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health ailments that should be handled at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for treatment look for a facility that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment center, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
