There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in English to receive professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When added to the reality that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health conditions that should be handled at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for addiction help should find a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, and 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 comprehensive assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
