There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Star to receive help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When coupled with the fact that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health issues that should be addressed at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for addiction help look for a rehab program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation program, where a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A complete assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective recovery program will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
