There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Hinesville to get professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly often suffer with other physical and mental health issues that must be treated at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for addiction help should find a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment facility, where a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment program will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
