There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Eskridge to receive treatment for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors often suffer with other physical and mental health issues that must be treated at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for treatment should find a facility that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction treatment and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient treatment center, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and psychological health 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 place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
