There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Fayette to receive professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly commonly have other physical and psychological health conditions that must be handled at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for addiction help look for a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation facility, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on 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 often the cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective recovery program will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
