There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Bremen to receive treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When added to the reality that seniors often have other physical and mental health issues that should be handled at the same time, it is recommended that any senior searching for treatment should find a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation program, where a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A thorough recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
