There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Larned to get 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 healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors commonly have other physical and mental health issues that must be addressed concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for treatment look for a program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation program, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A complete recovery plan will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
