There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Belleville to receive treatment for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse problems among seniors are alcohol abuse 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 the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health ailments that must be addressed at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for help look for a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient treatment program, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A complete recovery plan will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
