There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Dublin to get professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health ailments that should be addressed concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for treatment look for a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction treatment and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation center, where a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment program will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
