There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in New Castle to receive help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy 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 addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When added to the fact that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that must be treated at the same time, it is recommended that any senior searching for treatment should find a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction treatment and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation center, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A complete recovery program will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
