There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Spencer to receive professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a deadly combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly often suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that should be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior searching for help should find a facility that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction therapy and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation program, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
