There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Frankfort to receive professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the fact that seniors often suffer with other physical and psychological health conditions that should be treated concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for treatment should find a rehab program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation center, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed 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.
