There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Paoli to get help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When added to the fact that seniors often struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that should be addressed at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for help should find a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse therapy and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, where a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A thorough recovery plan will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
