There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Petersburg to receive help for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a deadly combination. When combined with the fact that seniors often struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that should be handled concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for addiction help look for a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential treatment program, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed 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 program will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
