There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Wabash to receive professional help 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 addiction occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health ailments that must be handled concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for treatment should find a rehab program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction treatment and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient treatment program, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A thorough treatment program will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
