There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Boonville to get 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 stable as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that seniors often struggle with other physical and psychological health ailments that should be handled concurrently, it is important that any senior searching for help look for a rehab program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient treatment facility, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
