There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Rome to receive help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When combined with the reality that seniors often have other physical and mental health issues that should be handled concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for help should find a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation center, where a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A complete recovery program will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
