There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Mackay to get treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism 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 dangerous combination. When added to the fact that seniors often struggle with other physical and mental health issues that should be handled concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for treatment look for a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse therapy and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation program, 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 health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. An effective recovery program will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
