There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Hays to get help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When combined with the reality that seniors often have other physical and psychological health ailments that must be handled at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for help look for a facility that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient treatment program, where a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. An effective recovery program will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
