There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Fayetteville to get help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly often suffer with other physical and psychological health issues that must be addressed at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for treatment look for a program that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation center, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A thorough treatment program will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
