There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Kellogg to receive professional 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 healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse problems 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 the elderly often suffer with other physical and mental health ailments that must be handled at the same time, it is recommended that any senior searching for addiction help look for a facility that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment center, where a 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 very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A thorough recovery plan will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
