There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Rockport to get treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a deadly combination. When added to the reality that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and mental health ailments that should be treated at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for addiction help look for a facility that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment facility, where a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A thorough recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
