There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Driggs to get help 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 common substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly often suffer with other physical and psychological health issues that should be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for help should find a facility that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation program, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
