There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Osceola to receive treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the reality that seniors often struggle with other physical and psychological health ailments that should be handled at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for help should find a facility that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation center, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. An effective recovery program will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
